Sediment transport in a fringing reef environment: Analysis using laboratory experiments and numerical modelling

Coral reefs are highly valuable structures in many respects and it is increasingly important to understand hydrodynamics and morphodynamics around reefs to be able to better protect them and their hinterland. Flume experiments were performed on a scaled fringing reef in the laboratory facilities of Deltares in Delft. The objective of this thesis...

Estimation of the Nearshore Bathymetry using Remote Sensing Techniques: Combining Beach Wizard and cBathy

Our understanding of nearshore coastal zone processes can be improved significantly with the availability of high spatiotemporal resolution bathymetry data. This high resolution data can be used for validation and calibration of numerical models, for providing forecasts of hydrodynamic conditions and morphological development, and for monitoring...
