Siltation is a form of water pollution it is caused by the particles of soil, silt and clay entering the river, or lake or practically any body of water, it is caused by soil erosion and the process can typically be accelerated by farmers or construction sites of nearby areas of bodies of water, in other words by human activity. This can cause an entire ecological system to fall apart and cause species of aquatic fish such as the endemic species of the cichlids (a species of fish) or even coral reefs of the sea for example. So in short yes siltation is a form of water pollution and it may also be named sediment pollution.
