(author)In this study an overview of existing and planned storm surge barriers in the world is provided. A systematic analysis relates functional requirements (e.g. navigation and tidal exchange) to the main barrier characteristics (e.g. gate type, dimensions). Furthermore, as the costs of barriers are an important issue in the planning, available cost...conference paper 2014

(author)The Houston - Galveston area is at significant risk from hurricane induced storm surges. This paper summarizes ongoing studies on flood risk reduction for the region. Firstly, based on a simplified probabilistic hurricane surge model , the return periods of surges within the bay have been estimated. This model framework can be used to assess the...conference paper 2014

Botterhuis, T. (author), Rijcken, T. (author), Kok, M. (author), Van der Toorn, A. (author)Op basis van twee eerdere onderzoeksresultaten wordt nader onderzoek gedaan naar effecten van klimaatverandering op de maatgevende hoogwaterstanden. Om tot een betere afstemming te komen zijn vijf nadere onderzoeksvragen gesteld door Delta-deelprogramma Rijnmond-Drechtsteden (DP-RD). Specifiek gaat het om de faalkans van de Maeslantkering.report 2012
