Within the framework of the Agenda for the Future defined by the Flanders-Dutch Scheldt Committee (VNSC), the Flanders Ministry of Public Works, department of Maritime Access (MOW-aMT) requested Deltares to carry out morphological research on the Westerschelde Mouth together with Waterbouwkundig Laboratorium Borgerhout (WL). In particular, this research concerns a Delft3D hindeast of the morphological developments of the Westerschelde mouth over the 1963-2011 period. This study thus provides an overiew of how process-based modeling efforts can contribute to predicting decadal time scale morphadynamie developments.
