Roseires Reservoir, located on the Blue Nile River, in Sudan, is the first trap to the sediments coming from the upper catchment in Ethiopia, which suffers from high erosion and desertification problems. The reservoir lost already more than one third of its 5 storage capacity due to sedimentation in the last four decades....journal article 2014

Duong, M.T. (author), Ranasinghe, Roshanka (author), Luijendijk, Arjen (author), Walstra, D.J.R. (author), Roelvink, D. (author)Tidal inlets are of great societal importance and are also the most morphologically dynamic regions in the coastal zone. Therefore, they are of great scientific interest. Their behaviour is governed by the delicate balance of oceanic processes such as tides, waves and mean sea level (MSL), and fluvial/estuarine processes such as riverflow. All...poster 2014

Zhou, M. (author), Roelvink, J.A. (author), Verheij, H.J. (author), Ligteringen, H. (author)When a ship sails with a certain speed, there is always a return current along and under the ship. The return current induces a water level depression around the ship. When the ship travels along a bank, the flow field around the ship is asymmetrical. Additional bank effects will be induced. A reliable estimation of all these effects and the...conference paper 2013

(author), Van Thiel De Vries, J.S.M. (author)This paper describes the development of a physics-based rip current prediction system called CoSMoS. This system consists of a hydrodynamic prediction system which is composed of a train of surge and wave models from the global scale to the scale of a beach resort (order kilometers). For the beach resort scale model, it is of utmost importance...conference paper 2013

(author)Understanding of the behaviour of coastline perturbations at soft-coastlines is essential for modelling coastal evolution at decadal time scales. Many coastline models do, for example, implicitly assume dominant diffusive behaviour of coastline features. The validity of this assumption is investigated for the Dutch coast on the basis of data on...conference paper 2013

Ranasinghe, R.W.M.R.J.B. (author), Callaghan, D. (author), Roelvink, D. (author)The dependency between the accuracy/uncertainty of storm erosion exceedance estimates obtained via a probabilistic model and the level of sophistication of the structural function (storm erosion model) embedded in the probabilistic model is assessed via the application of Callaghan et al.'s (2008) Joint Probability Model (JPM) at Narrabeen beach...conference paper 2013

Roelvink, D. (author), Den Heijer, C. (author), Van Thiel De Vries, J.S.M. (author)Land reclamations and island coasts often involve strongly curved shorelines, which are challenging to be properly modeled by numerical morphological models. Evaluation of the long term development of these types of coasts as well as their response to storm conditions requires proper representation of the governing physical processes. Not all...conference paper 2013

Pomeroy, A.W.M. (author), van Dongeren, A. (author), Lowe, R.J. (author), Van Thiel de Vries, J.S.M. (author), Roelvink, J.A. (author)Low frequency wave resonance has been postulated to enhance damage to coral reef protected coastlines during storm events. This paper uses the numerical model XBeach to examine the dynamics that contribute to resonance that have been previously observed on a fringing reef on Guam during tropical storm Man-Yi (Péquignet et al., 2009). The methods...conference paper 2012

Dastgheib, A. (author), Roelvink, J.A. (author)Constructing a closure dam such as Afsluitdijk causes an instantaneous change in tidal wave propagation and flow field in the basin which triggers extensive morphological changes in the adjacent tidal basin. These morphological changes may continue for centuries before the whole system reaches a new "equilibrium" state, which is different from...conference paper 2012

Blossier, B. (author), Briere, C. (author), Roelvink, J.A. (author), Walstra, D.J.R. (author)Sand beach profiles can exhibit nearshore sandbars with complex 3D patterns. Under energetic conditions, these patterns disappear and the bars get to a certain extent alongshore uniform. This phenomenon is called a reset. The existing literature mainly concerns the development of the bar patterns (3D) or the cross-shore migration of sandbars (2D...conference paper 2012

(author)Assessing swimmer safety along the Dutch coast entails more than only assessing the risk of rip currents. Seven criteria have been formulated to make a comprehensive assessment of swimmer safety along the Dutch coast. These are based on interviews with lifeguards, rescue report statistics and detailed lagrangian measurements of the current...conference paper 2012

(author)In the Nile River Basin, upstream runoff variability is an acute issue to downstream countries, since these countries are almost entirely dependent on Nile waters. Cooperative management of the Nile waters has become urgent, considering climate variations (Conway, 2005; Yates & Strzepek, 1998 a) and the necessity to use the water resource for...conference paper 2012

van der Wegen, M. (author), Guo, J. (author), Jaffe, B.E. (author), van der Spek, A.J.F. (author), Roelvink, J.A. (author)Levees are small elevation ridges found on the edge between channels and shoals. They are known to develop along river channels during floods and along channels in alluvial deep water fans. Levees in tidal environments such as the Waddenzee are less pronounced (with a typical height in the order of 10 cm) and may be recognized by the fact that...conference paper 2012
