Thiéblemont, Rémi (author), le Cozannet, Gonéri (author), Rohmer, Jérémy (author), Privat, Adrien (author), Guidez, Romain (author), Negulescu, Caterina (author), Philippenko, Xénia (author), Luijendijk, Arjen (author), Calkoen, F.R. (author), Nicholls, Robert J. (author)Coastal erosion and flooding are projected to increase during the 21<sup>st</sup> century due to sea-level rise (SLR). To prevent adverse impacts of unmanaged coastal development, national organizations can apply a land protection policy, which consists of acquiring coastal land to avoid further development. Yet, these reserved areas remain...journal article 2024

Tierolf, Lars (author), Haer, Toon (author), Athanasiou, Panagiotis (author), Luijendijk, Arjen (author), Botzen, W. J. Wouter (author), Aerts, Jeroen C.J.H. (author)In this study, we present a novel modeling framework that provides a stylized representation of coastal adaptation and migration dynamics under sea level rise (SLR). We develop an agent-based model that simulates household and government agents adapting to shoreline change and increasing coastal flood risk. This model is coupled to a gravity...journal article 2024

Overes, P.H.P. (author), Borsje, B. W. (author), Luijendijk, Arjen (author), Hulscher, S. J.M.H. (author)Sand waves are found on shallow, sandy seabeds throughout the world and their dynamics may pose an imminent threat to offshore construction. Therefore, there is a pressing need to understand bed level dynamics in sand wave areas. These bed level dynamics lead to variations in sand wave shape and migration rate over time. However, these...journal article 2024

Lansu, Eva M. (author), Reijers, Valérie C. (author), Höfer, Solveig (author), Luijendijk, Arjen (author), Rietkerk, Max (author), Wassen, Martin J. (author), Lammerts, Evert Jan (author), van der Heide, Tjisse (author)Coastal ecosystems provide vital services, but human disturbance causes massive losses. Remaining ecosystems are squeezed between rising seas and human infrastructure development. While shoreline retreat is intensively studied, coastal congestion through infrastructure remains unquantified. Here we analyse 235,469 transects worldwide to show...journal article 2024

(author), de Schipper, M.A. (author)Quantitative predictions of marine and aeolian sediment transport in the nearshore–beach–dune system are important for designing Nature-Based Solutions (NBS) in coastal environments. To quantify the impact of the marine-aeolian interactions on shaping NBS, we present a framework coupling three existing process-based models: Delft3D Flexible...journal article 2024

(author)Climate change and human activity threaten sea turtle nesting beaches through increased flooding and erosion. Understanding the environmental characteristics that enable nesting can aid to preserve and expand these habitats. While numerous local studies exist, a comprehensive global analysis of environmental influences on the distribution of...journal article 2024

Kettler, T.T. (author), de Schipper, M.A. (author), Luijendijk, Arjen (author)Projections of high rates of sea level rise have stimulated proposals for adaptation strategies with increasingly high nourishment volumes along sandy beaches. An underlying assumption is that coastal profiles respond rapidly to nourishments by redistributing sediments towards a (new) equilibrium shape. However, this perception may not be...journal article 2024

(author), Peng, Yiming (author), Pang, Qiaotong (author), Luijendijk, Arjen (author)Marine plastic pollution poses a potential threat to the ecosystem, but the sources and their magnitudes remain largely unclear. Existing bottom-up emission inventories vary among studies for two to three orders of magnitudes (OMs). Here, we adopt a top-down approach that uses observed dataset of sea surface plastic concentrations and an...journal article 2023

(author), Aarninkhof, S.G.J. (author)Muddy coasts provide ecological habitats, supply food and form a natural coastal defence. Relative sea level rise, changing wave energy and human interventions will increase the pressure on muddy coastal zones. For sustainable coastal management it is key to obtain information on the geomorphology of and historical changes along muddy areas....journal article 2023

Ghanavati, Mandana (author), Young, Ian (author), Kirezci, Ebru (author), Ranasinghe, Roshanka (author), Duong, Trang Minh (author), Luijendijk, Arjen (author)A common inference in research studies of observed and projected changes in global ocean wave height and storm surge, is that such changes are potentially important for long-term coastal management. Despite numerous studies of the impacts of anthropogenic climate change on trends in global wind and waves, a clear link to impacts on sandy...journal article 2023

(author), Luijendijk, Arjen (author), Calkoen, F.R. (author)Satellite remote sensing is becoming a widely used monitoring technique in coastal sciences. Yet, no benchmarking studies exist that compare the performance of popular satellite-derived shoreline mapping algorithms against standardized sets of inputs and validation data.

This is achieved by maintaining the part of the coast that support these functions; the coastal foundation. The coastal foundation is maintained by means of sand nourishments. Up to now, it has been assumed that net transports across the coastal foundation's...journal article 2022

Luijendijk, Arjen (author), Kras, Etiënne (author), Dagalaki, Vasiliki (author), Morelissen, Robin (author), Hoteit, Ibrahim (author), Ranasinghe, Roshanka (author)The Saudi Arabian tourism sector is growing, and its economy has flourished over the last decades. This has resulted in numerous coastal developments close to large economic centers, while many more are proposed or planned. The coastal developments have influenced the behavior of the shoreline in the past. Here we undertake a national...journal article 2022

Luijendijk, Arjen (author)A common measure to mitigate erosion along sandy beaches is the implementation of sand nourishments. The design and societal acceptance of such a soft mitigation measure demands information on the expected evolution at various time scales ranging from a storm event to multiple decades. Process-based morphodynamic models are increasingly applied...journal article 2021

(author), Luijendijk, Arjen (author), Ysebaert, Tom (author)The Sand Motor is a very large (20 million m<sup>3</sup>) nourishment constructed along the coast in The Netherlands. The huge volume of sand is redistributed along the coast by natural forces stemming from tidal currents and waves. For environmental evaluation of this large construction, the benthic subtidal fauna has been sampled prior to...journal article 2021

Sabour, Salma (author), Brown, Sally (author), Nicholls, Robert J. (author), Haigh, Ivan D. (author), Luijendijk, Arjen (author)Natural World Heritage Sites (NWHS), which are of Outstanding Universal Value, are increasingly threatened by natural and anthropogenic pressures. This is especially true for coastal NWHS, which are additionally subject to erosion and flooding.
