(author)A quick-scan yield prediction method has been developed to assess rooftop photovoltaic (PV) potential. The method has three main parts. For each roof, first (i) virtual 3D roof segments were reconstructed using aerial imagery, then, (ii) PV modules were automatically fitted onto roof segments using a fitting algorithm and finally, (iii) expected...journal article 2020

Nijhuis, S. (author), de Vries, Jeroen (author)Research through design (RTD) is a frequently used concept in the day-to-day practice of education and research in the field of landscape architecture. RTD as a concept usually refers to a research method in which spatial design plays the leading role. The underlying premise is that design is a form of research and involves a culture of thought....journal article 2020

Fajardo, Sebastian (author), Hofstede, Gert Jan (author), de Vries, Martijn (author), Kramer, Mark R. (author), Bernal, Andrés (author)Studies of colonization processes in past human societies often use a standard population model in which population is represented as a single quantity. Real populations in these processes, however, are structured with internal classes or stages, and classes are sometimes created based on social differentiation. In this present work,...journal article 2020

Vos, S.E. (author), Spaans, Lennard (author), Reniers, A.J.H.M. (author), Holman, Rob (author), McCall, Robert (author), de Vries, S. (author)Intertidal bars are naturally occurring morphological features along the waterline of sandy beaches. Present quantitative knowledge on intertidal bar behavior is limited, due to the scarcity of data resources and the limitations of traditional survey techniques. To investigate and quantify the cross-shore morphologic behavior of intertidal...journal article 2020

(author), Friedman, Joshua (author)Coastal management in the Netherlands has the aim to defend coastal zones by preventing flooding and mitigating erosion. To that end, large-scale nourishments are placed in the nearshore, which are supposed to dynamically preserve the coastal zone over a timescale of years. To assess their effectiveness, these nourishments are monitored over...journal article 2020

Hoonhout, B.M. (author), de Vries, S. (author)Mega nourishments are a novel approach to stimulating coastal safety and resilience. Mega nourishments are intended to spread along the coast on a decadal time scale by natural sediment transport processes with a minimum of intrusion into the natural coastal system. The supratidal morphodynamic behaviour of mega nourishments is not well...journal article 2019

van Regteren, Marin (author), Colosimo, I. (author), de Vries, Pepijn (author), van Puijenbroek, Marinka Elisabeth Barbara (author), Freij, Victor Sebastiaan (author), Baptist, Martin Josephus (author), Elschot, Kelly (author)Coastal systems worldwide deliver vital ecosystem services, such as biodiversity, carbon sequestration, and coastal protection. Effectivity of these ecosystem services increases when vegetation is present. Understanding the mechanisms behind vegetation establishment in bio-geomorphic systems is necessary to understand their ability to recover...journal article 2019

van Gelder, Jean-Louis (author), de Vries, Reinout E. (author), Demetriou, A.M. (author), van Sintemaartensdijk, Iris (author), Donker, Tara (author)Objectives: This study proposes an alternative hypothetical scenario method capitalizing on the potential of virtual reality (VR). Rather than asking participants to imagine themselves in a specific situation, VR perceptually immerses them in it. We hypothesized that experiencing a scenario in VR would increase feelings of being “present” in...journal article 2019

Cohn, Nicholas (author), Hoonhout, B.M. (author), Goldstein, Evan B. (author), de Vries, S. (author), Moore, Laura J. (author), Vinent, Orencio Durán (author), Ruggiero, Peter (author)Coastal landscape change represents aggregated sediment transport gradients from spatially and temporally variable marine and aeolian forces. Numerous tools exist that independently simulate subaqueous and subaerial coastal profile change in response to these physical forces on a range of time scales. In this capacity, coastal foredunes have...journal article 2019

de Vries, G. (author)Climate change is one of the greatest challenges of our times. We humans must change our behavior in the short run to mitigate the effects of climate change in the long run. Policymakers develop environmental policies to motivate this behavioral change. However, people may nonetheless fail to change to more sustainable practices, defeating...journal article 2019
