    Improving the modelling of flow over groynes : modelling of laboratory cases

    Groynes are ubiquitous structures present in the Rhine for more than a century. When groynes are submerged during high flow periods, they cause additional friction (or energy loses). Modelling of the energy losses caused by groynes is essential for a proper management of the river system.Several models exist for considering the effect of groynes…

    conceptual framework for fine sediment dynamics in the Scheldt estuary : providing a framework for data and model analyses and impact assessments

    In the Scheldt estuary, located in the Netherlands and Flanders (Belgium), authorities cope with several problems and challenges associated to fine sediment dynamics. These are related to dredging, turbidity, and development of intertidal areas and salt marshes. These issues are typical for other estuaries with large ports around the world, in…

    DWSM: a sixth-generation 3D model of the Dutch Wadden Sea : 2022 release

    The development of this model is part of a more comprehensive project in which sixth-generation models have been developed for all waters maintained by RWS. An important difference with the previous fifth-generation models is the use of the D-HYDRO Suite (known internationally as the Delft3D Flexible Mesh Suite), the new software framework for…

    Hydrological impacts of Climate Change in Bhutan : Preparing a Climate Rationale for the Green Climate Fund

    Understanding the impact of climate change on water resources is crucial for selecting adequate adaptation strategies at a local scale. Global meteorological re-analysis datasets are useful to evaluate current-day climate conditions and trends, as a first step in a climate change assessment in poorly gauged basins. However, these datasets often…

    implications of the KNMI'23 climate scenarios for the discharge of the Rhine and Meuse

    In 2021, the United Nations climate panel (IPCC) published the new version of the international climate report (the Sixth Assessment Report, AR6). The report presented the latest projections for climate change worldwide. The projections are based on the latest scientific knowledge and most recent climate models. On 9 October, the KNMI presented…

    Handbook of scour and cable protection methods

    The Handbook of Scour and Cable Protection methods is the result of a multi-year research programme performed as a Joint Industry Project with the contribution of over 20 industrial partners. This project was initiated from the observation that no good and generically applicable design formulae and guidelines exist to protect offshore structures…

    Scoping for NbS to improve water security and navigation in the Upper Paraguay River Basin and the Pantanal region

    WWF - the Netherlands would like to scope for NbS in Latin America, starting with the largest tropical wetland of the world, the Pantanal. The Pantanal, an important area of the Upper Paraguay River Basin, have suffered prolonged droughts and overexploitation over the last decades. The Pantanal has lost 74% of its surface water in the last 30…

    Environmental, social, and WASH factors affecting the recurrence of cholera outbreaks in displacement camps in Northeast Nigeria : a rapid appraisal

    In 2021, Nigeria witnessed a severe cholera outbreak that affected Borno state, in which more than 1,600,000 internally displaced persons (IDPs) resided at the time. This rapid appraisal explored factors that facilitate the recurrence of cholera outbreaks in sites hosting IDPs in Northeast Nigeria. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with…

    Robust hinterland connections in times of drought and heat : subproject 2 of NWO-project “Extreme droughts and the Dutch water sector: impacts and adaptation”

    The increased occurrence of extreme drought impacts the inland waterways in the Netherlands and beyond, leading to reduced river navigability and thereby resulting in high additional costs for the inland waterways logistics sector. In this report we explore knowledge gaps and adaptation options for the sector, to ensure more robust hinterland…
