Quynh, V.V. (author)
Field investigation by Vuong Van Quynh on the dissipation of wave energy in a mangrove field off the coast of southern Vietnam. Based on regression analysis a formula has been developed to determine the wave height decrease as function of the tree density and the tree sizes.

The ‚Guidelines and Recommendations for the Design of Coastal Structures (EAK)‘ published in 1993 (Die Küste, H. 55) have been revised based on today’s scientific knowledge, technical development and practical experience of the past years. Major parts of the recommendations have been re-written. Together with the unmodified recommendations, D, E...

Along the North Sea coast, water levels are rising and waves are intensifying due to climate change. The best scientific evidence suggests that both phenomena are likely to accelerate over the coming decades. In some North Sea coastal areas also land is sinking and tidal heights and rates of erosion are increasing. This means that the risk of...

Coastal rock structures are widely used in coastal engineering for a variety of purposes, including controlling the morphological development of beaches and providing protection against coastal erosion or flooding by wave overtopping. Strict adherence to existing design guidance has resulted in many of these structures being built using multiple...

The performance and durability of timber groynes (or 'groins') is highly dependent on the design and detailing of the structure. Using knowledge and experience developed over generations an effective functional design can be achieved, which may ultimately result in lower whole life costs and provide environmental advantages over alternative...

Anonymous, A. (author)
This document outlines the Cabinet's position on water management policy in the 21st century. Immediately fuelling this is my concern about increasing water levels in the rivers, flooding, and the accelerated rise in sea level. In a country like the Netherlands, the geography of which is dominated by the sea and the mouths of four great rivers,...

The study into the feasibility o f the construction of islands off the coast of Israel is being conducted jointly between teams from Israel and The Netherlands as part of agreements for collaboration dating from 1996 and 1997. From early 1997, work began on defining the details of the project plan for the feasibility study. Since late 1997 and...

Fernando, P.C. (author)
Present strategies for coastal defence in the Dutch coast are mainly focused on conventional solutions such as revetments, dunes, dikes, groynes as well as on beach nourishment. No attention has so far been paid to the implementation of Offshore Breakwaters. An offshore breakwater is a shore parallel structure which is constructed seperately...

The coast is a very important aspect of life in the Netherlands. 60 % of the Netherlands is below the sea level, everyone lives less than 200 km from a beach, and for most people the sea is less than 50 km away. But in the Netherlands there is officially no Agency for Coastal Zone Management, neither are there laws on Coastal Zone Management. On...

The description of the transformation of shore in larger scales, i.e. the far-field effects, is summarized in Chapter 2 while the near-field mechanisms, encompassing different overall and local failure modes, stability and performance are dealt with in Chapter 3. Both are foliowed by Chapters 4 and 5 with design computations and examples,...

Fiselier, J.L. (author)
Mangroves are productive ecosystems, that sustain important fisheries, provide a variety of forest products and harbour millions of resident and migratory birds as well as endangered mammals and reptiles. Reclamation for aquaculture and agriculture is currently considered the main way to achieve development of mangrove areas. These types of...
