Perspectives on the IJssel: Widening solution space in riverine climate adaptation

The current approach in riverine climate adaptation strategies aims to accommodate all functionalities of rivers into one singular riverbed, but runs into the limitations of an integrated spatial system. The research shows that the different functionalities of rivers, i.e. the different riverine regimes, in synchronization will lead to a decline...

Physical Model Study of Living Breakwaters: Stability and Ecological Analysis of Green-Grey Hybrid Structure Concept for Climate Change Adaptation

A vast majority (84%) of all countries in the world have coastlines and 80-100% of their population resides within 100 km of the shoreline. Studies show a major growth in population in low-elevation coastal zones and a scenario of rising sea level may force millions of people to relocate. To deal with the increased frequency of extreme events...
