Verhagen, H.J. (author), Maranus, J.W. (author)Langs de Zeeuwse kust bewegen grote massa's zand van zuid naar noord. Deze zandgolven zorgen voor een cyclisch kustgedrag. Bij de besluitvorming over kustverdedigingswerken en strandsuppleties is inzicht in de kinematica van deze golven essentieel.journal article 1987

Verhagen, H.J. (author), Volker, W.F. (author)The most urbanized part of the Netherlands is situated below sea level and is protected by dikes. By act of parliament allowable inundation frequencies for each part of the country are fixed. In case of two dangers (river run-off and storm surge) it is a problem to determine design values for dikes. Guidelines are developed to solve these...conference paper 1989

Verhagen, H.J. (author)Sand waves, defined as longshore wave-like movements of the shoreline, measured in a horizontal plane, are described along several stretches of the shoreline of The Netherlands. They have a celerity in the order of 50-200 m/yr, a period of 50- 150 years and an amplitude of 30- 500 m. They are found along the whole Dutch shoreline. Analysis of...journal article 1989

Verhagen, H.J. (author)The 1400 km Dutch coastline is affected by sea-level rise. At this moment a legal framework is made to guarantee safety of the dikes also in future. Also a national policy is developed for compensation of all coastal erosion. Both measures should make it possible for the Netherlands to survive an increased sea-level rise.conference paper 1990

Visser, P.J. (author), Vrijling, J.K. (author), Verhagen, H.J. (author)The set-up and results of a field experiment on sand-dike breach erosion are described, It is found that the breaching process for the 2.2 m high sand-dike is similar to that in Visser's (1988) laboratory experiments with a 0.6 m high sand-dike. Confrontation of Visser's (1988) breach erosion model with the field data shows reasonable agreement...conference paper 1990

Verhagen, H.J. (author)Because dunes protect a large part of The Netherlands against coastal flooding and inundation, it is vital to guarantee the strength of these natural sea defenses. Besides sea defense, dunes have other functions. Sandy shorelines and dunes are frequently eroded. A legal framework has been developed that guarantees the required safety-level of...journal article 1990

Stigter, C. (author), Verhagen, H.J. (author), De Vriend, H.J. (author), Van der Weijde, R.W. (author), Van Raalten, C. (author), Loxham, M. (author)In the Netherlands today much attention is paid to the effect of coastal structures on the environment. In the past it was usual to quantify the effect of such a structure on its environment solely with the purpose of deciding whether that effect could imply any hazard to the structure itself (or to structures in the neighbourhood). Nowadays...conference paper 1990

Verhagen, H.J. (author)The 350 km long Dutch coast along the North Sea is characterized by alternating coastal stretches of accretion and erosion resp. resulting in seaward and landward displacement retreats of the shoreline. Places of accretion and erosion also vary in time. Behind the dunes are low lying polders (very often with a ground level even below the low...conference paper 1990

Verhagen, H.J. (author)The government of The Netherlands has decided in the summer of 1990 to maintai.n the coastline at the position of 1990. This will be done mainly by artificial beach nourishment. The costs will be paid by the national government. The purpose of this coastal maintenance is to maintain a sufficient level of safety and to maintain the various...conference paper 1991

Roelse, P. (author), Verhagen, H.J. (author)In the Netherlands much land was captured from the sea. At the same time however along the coast severe losses of land occurred. The main reasons were sea level rise and effects of decreasing tidal volumes of estuaries. Besides there were the local effects of shifting tidal channels and periodical movements of the coastline. Building of groynes,...conference paper 1991

Verhagen, H.J. (author), Pilarczyk, K.W. (author)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...conference paper 1992

Hillen, R. (author), Van de Wetering, B.G.M. (author), Verhagen, H.J. (author)The Southern North Sea is bordered by Great-Britain, France, Belgium, The Netherlands, Germany and Denmark. The North Sea basin and its adjacent shorelines are intensively used. Management of the basin and the coastal zone is therefore essential. Because of the small scale of the area, the dense population and the big scale of the interactions,...conference paper 1993

Verhagen, H.J. (author), Struik, P. (author)Tegenwoordig is bijna elk probleem bij de versterking van dijken op te lossen door een kunstwerk te maken in plaats van de traditionele grondconstructie. Soms wordt bij de afweging te weinig rekening gehouden met de lange levensduur en de bijzondere aard van' de waterkering'. Dat kan toekomstige generaties met grote problemen opzadelen.journal article 1993
