A mud budget of the Wadden Sea and its implications for sediment management

The world’s coasts and deltas are progressively threatened by climate change and human activities. The degree at which coastlines can adapt to these changes strongly depends on the sediment availability. The availability of muddy sediments is however poorly known. This study aims at developing a mud budget for the world’s largest system of...

How natural processes contribute to flood protection: A sustainable adaptation scheme for a wide green dike

Effective adaptation to sea-level rise is critical for future flood protection. Nature-based solutions including salt marshes have been proposed to naturally enhance coastal infrastructure. A gently sloping grass-covered dike (i.e. Wide Green Dike) can be strengthened with clay accumulating locally in the salt marsh. This study explores the...

On-chip interrogator based on Fourier transform spectroscopy

In this paper, the design and the characterization of a novel interrogator based on integrated Fourier transform (FT) spectroscopy is presented. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first integrated FT spectrometer used for the interrogation of photonic sensors. It consists of a planar spatial heterodyne spectrometer, which is...

Ecologische herstelmaatregelen in zoute wateren: Een ecologische evaluatie over de periode 1990-2000

DOEL Het rapport presenteert de resultaten van een evaluatie van 26 projecten van ecologisch herstel in of langs de zoute wateren. De projecten maken deel uit van het Programma Herstel en Inrichting, een uitvoeringsprogramma voortvloeiend uit de Derde Nota Waterhuishouding. Doel was om inzicht te verkrijgen in de succes- en faalfactoren van de...
