ComCoast (author)A desk study has been carried out in order to develop a conceptual model for the erosion of inner dike slopes with reinforced grass cover. Based on the results the following can be concluded: The presence of a geosynthetic in a grass slope can be taken into account in the EPM method by increasing the critical flow velocity. In particular, a...report 2005

Ahlhorn, F. (author)This report gives a short overview about the experiences of participation in coastal protection projects in Germany. The report gives no detailed description and evaluation of participation methods. In Germany, there exists a minor experience with participation in coastal protection projects. Much greater experience resulted from projects which...report 2005

Ter Horst, W.L.A. (author)This report provides a safety analysis of the ComCoast concept at Neersiel in Germany. The ComCoast concept is to use a wide coastal area for water defence purposes. The wide coastal area can be referred to as a coastal defence zone. The primary dike will be provided with a overtopping resistant revetment allowing more seawater to overtop the...report 2005

Van Gerven, K.A.J. (author), Van der Meer, J.W. (author), Van Heereveld, M.A. (author), Akkerman, G.J. (author)The present proposal deals with a presentation of three potentially feasible concepts for strengthening of the sea defences as to allow for increased wave overtopping, within the framework of ComCoast. In addition, for each concept an indicative proposal is given for a further theoretical study (Phase 2) and an indicative approach is shown for...report 2005

Tydeman, P. (author)In January 2001 a reduced tidal regime was introduced in Polder Breebaart, a polder located in the northern-east part of the Province of Groningen (The Netherlands). This reduced tidal regime was achieved by building a culvert in the seawall, connecting the polder with the seawater from the Dollard, a part of the Ems-estuary. The aim was (1)to...report 2005

Astley, T. (author), Massey, H. (author)This document has been produced to provide a tool to project managers to enable them to quickly assess whether or not participation is the right thing to do and the key Dos and Donts of participation. An example of a Community Engagement Plan in the UK is discribed.report 2005

ComCoast (author)An important element in the ComCoast concept is the overtopable sea defence (often a dike). In this concept the landward (inner) slope of the dike is adjusted in such a way that it can withstand higher overtopping rates. Two new concepts for covering the inner slope, sand cover and perforated mats, are discrebed in this report.report 2005

Steenbrink, R. (author), Pwa, S.T. (author), Busneili, M.M. (author), Karelse, M.K. (author)The objective of ComCoast (Combined functions in coastal defence zones) is to investigate how a multifunctional wide sea defence zone might be created. Instead of just increasing the height and weight of the dike, solutions are searched in the wide sea defence zone landward. These is an number of technical solutions, one of them is increasing...report 2005

Projects using innovative concepts in coastal defence -like ComCoast- can benefit greatly from participatory action. It can lead to innovative solutions with a broad societal support base, as is shown in the plan for water storage in the Overdiepse polder and the inundation compensation scheme for farmers in the upper River Dinkel region.
