    Investigation of Sediment Pathways in the Put Van Hansweert : morphological effects of dumping in a deep pit of the Western Scheldt

    Sediment connectivity in the Put van Hansweert was studied using the SedTRAILS model, which constructs sediment pathways from Delft3D model results. An important conclusion is that the SedTRAILS results show good agreement with the conceptual framework of regional morphodynamics, that is presented in Huismans et al. (2021).

    Light and primary production in the Western Scheldt : primary production model scenarios

    More insight is needed in the precise effect of changes in turbidity (suspended sediment) and primary production in the Schelde. This report describes a sensitivity analysis, and presents results of a set of the construction of Deurganckdok, and two realistic scenarios in order to get a better insight in these effects.

    Fresh water resources in the Changing Wealth of Nations : scoping chapter

    It is important that freshwater resources are valued and managed in a sustainable way. Water as a natural asset and source of wealth has so far not been included separately in the Changing Wealth of Nations book by the World Bank. In this report, we present a roadmap to value freshwater resources on a global scale in a manner that is broadly…

    long-term morphological response to sea level rise and different sediment strategies in the Western Scheldt estuary (The Netherlands)

    The objective of this study is to gain insight into the relative impact of (extreme) sea level rise (SLR) and different sediment strategies, i.e. dredging and dumping and beach nourishments, on the hydro- and morphodynamic behaviour of the Western Scheldt estuary (The Netherlands) till the end of the 21st century. For this, a process-based…

    Morphological models for IRM : Rhine branches 1D

    Until recently, river maintenance was mainly concerned with single-function interventions to, for instance, improve the river's navigability or reduce flood risk. This type of interventions framework has the negative consequence that an improvement in one function may not be beneficial for another function or service. For this reason and having…

    Modelling sand-mud interaction in Delft3D : investigation of sand-mud modules in Delft3D and Delft3D-FM

    Estuaries and tidal basins are unique systems that are often under pressure by increasing human activities and climate change. In many of these systems the contribution from both sand and mud are essential in their response to measures and global change, i.e. their resilience. For complexity reasons, sand and mud are often treated separately or…

    Morphodynamic modelling over alluvial and non-alluvial layers : literature review, update to Tuijnder concept

    Rijkswaterstaat is responsible for managing the river system in the Netherlands. As such, it is of crucial importance to predict morphodynamic changes. In the first part of this report, an overview and historical perspective of the possible approaches for predicting morphodynamic changes is given. This aims to help river managers in discerning…

    Visualizing changes of the Antarctic Ice Sheet

    This memo describes a new method to visualize data using tiled videomaps. These provide a zoomable video of the current (last 5 years) of ice loss at the area that is most relevant for the Netherlands. This results in an easy-to-understand visualization of some of the processes (glacier flow, sea-ice loss, fracturing) that contribute to the…

    Development of a sixth generation model for the NW European Shelf (DCSM-FM 100m) : model setup, calibration and validation

    Upon request of Rijkswaterstaat (RWS), Deltares has developed a sixth-generation hydrodynamic model of the Northwest European Shelf. Specifically, this model covers the North Sea and adjacent shallow seas and estuaries in the Netherlands, such as the Wadden Sea, the Ems-Dollard estuary, the Western Scheldt and the Eastern Scheldt. The development…

    Integrated hydro-social modeling at catchment scale : a case for the Rhine basin

    This conference presentation highlights the work on hydro-socio modelling for the Rhine catchment. This casestudy shows the current and planned possibilities of using BlueEarth to support effective stakeholder dialogues.

    assessment of present day and future sea level rise at the Dutch coast : Zeespiegelstijging langs de Nederlandse kust en de regionale bestuurlijke consequenties

    In this report an assessment of present day and future sea level rise is given, to provide a scientific background in the related public debates. We start with a discussion on the present-day sea level rise acceleration. Subsequently, we discuss the consistency between sea level rise observations and future sea level projections along the North…
