What is a "sluice"?
A sluice is a water-controlled gate or channel used to manage the flow of water, often in rivers, canals, or dams. It can be opened or closed to allow water to flow through, helping to regulate water levels, direct water to different areas, or control flooding. Sluices are commonly used in farming systems, power plants, and drainage systems to control the movement of water for various purposes, such as water distribution or managing the flow during storms. They are an important part of water management systems to prevent damage or ensure proper flow.
