Beselly, S.M. (author), Grueters, U. (author), van Der Wegen, M. (author), Reyns, J.A.H. (author), Dijkstra, J. (author), Roelvink, D. (author)As climate-change-driven extremes potentially make coastal areas more vulnerable, mangroves can help sustainably protect the coasts. There is a substantial understanding of both mangrove dynamics and hydro-morphodynamic processes. However, the knowledge of complex eco-geomorphic interactions with physical-environmental stressors remains...journal article 2023

Frantzen, Paco (author)Global climate change affects mountain regions such as the European Alps. Consequently, glacier extents decrease, and proglacial areas, the areas that recently lost their ice cover, increase in size. These proglacial areas are subject to a high frequency and magnitude of geomorphological activity and act as a sediment source for downstream...master thesis 2022

Holzhauer, H. (author), Borsje, B.W. (author), Herman, P.M.J. (author), Schipper, C.A. (author), Wijnberg, K.M. (author)As a response to climate change and sea-level rise, new nourishment strategies for low-lying sandy coasts are developed. These interventions affect the habitat quality of coastal ecosystems for benthic communities. Unraveling the relationship between benthic fauna and their environment facilitates the design of sustainable management...journal article 2022

Karamitopoulos, P. (author), Donselaar, M.E. (author), Weltje, G. J. (author), van Toorenenburg, K. A. (author)An advection–diffusion model of fluvial processes was used to analyze the stratigraphic expression of avulsions in terminal river systems and understand their control on basin-fill architecture. The initial and boundary conditions of the model runs (i.e., catchment area, smoothed initial topographic surface, grain-size distribution and...journal article 2022

van IJzendoorn, Christa (author), Hallin, E.C. (author), Cohn, Nicholas (author), Reniers, A.J.H.M. (author), de Vries, S. (author)In sandy beach systems, the aeolian sediment transport can be governed by the vertical structure of the sediment layers at the bed surface. Here, data collected with a newly developed sand scraper is presented to determine high-resolution vertical grain size variability and how it is affected by marine and aeolian processes. Sediment samples...journal article 2022

Kumar, S. (author), Ghosh, D. (author), Donselaar, M.E. (author), Burgers, F. (author), Ghosh, Ashok Kumar (author)Shallow aquifers in many Holocene alluvial basins around the world have in the last three decades been identified as arsenic pollution hotspots, in which the spatial variation of natural (or: geogenic) arsenic concentration is conditioned by the meandering-river geomorphology and the fluvial lithofacies distribution. Despite the large amount of...journal article 2021

Latella, Melissa (author), Luijendijk, Arjen (author), Moreno-Rodenas, Antonio M. (author), Camporeale, Carlo (author)In recent years, satellite imagery has shown its potential to support the sustainable management of land, water, and natural resources. In particular, it can provide key information about the properties and behavior of sandy beaches and the surrounding vegetation, improving the ecomor-phological understanding and modeling of coastal dynamics....journal article 2021

Chen, Xiaomin (author), Xu, Gaohong (author), Zhang, Wanshun (author), Peng, Hong (author), Xia, Han (author), Zhang, Xiao (author), Ke, Q. (author), Wan, Jing (author)The Three Gorges Project (TGP) has greatly enhanced the heterogeneity of the underlying surface in the Three Gorges Reservoir Area (TGRA), thereby affecting the hydrologic processes and water quality. However, the influence of the differences of underlying surfaces on the hydrologic processes and water quality in the TGRA has not been studied...journal article 2019

Prenner, D. (author), Hrachowitz, M. (author), Kaitna, R. (author)Torrential processes like fluvial flows (flash floods with or without intensive sediment transport) and debris flows can represent a threat to people and infrastructure in alpine domains. Up to now the hydro-meteorological trigger conditions and their connection with geomorphic watershed characteristics that favor the initiation of either...journal article 2019

Li, Jiaguang (author), Yang, Xiucheng (author), Maffei, C. (author), Tooth, Stephen (author), Yao, Guangqing (author)In some internally-draining dryland basins, ephemeral river systems terminate at the margins of playas. Extreme floods can exert significant geomorphological impacts on the lower reaches of these river systems and the playas, including causing changes to flood extent, channel-floodplain morphology, and sediment dispersal. However, the...journal article 2018

MIS 5e relative sea-level changes in the Mediterranean Sea: Contribution of isostatic disequilibriumStocchi, Paolo (author), Vacchi, Matteo (author), Lorscheid, Thomas (author), de Boer, Bas (author), Simms, Alexander R. (author), van de Wal, Roderik S W (author), Vermeersen, L.L.A. (author), Pappalardo, Marta (author), Rovere, Alessio (author)Sea-level indicators dated to the Last Interglacial, or Marine Isotope Stage (MIS) 5e, have a twofold value. First, they can be used to constrain the melting of Greenland and Antarctic Ice Sheets in response to global warming scenarios. Second, they can be used to calculate the vertical crustal rates at active margins. For both applications,...journal article 2018

Attema, Y.H. (author)The interaction between vegetation and the morphodynamics is considered to be an important process in salt marsh formation and succession. Therefore, the contribution of vegetation modelling on the long-term morphological development of salt marshes is assessed by implementing a vegetation growth model in the morphodynamic modelling software...master thesis 2014

Ten Brink, T. (author)How to, a landscape architect, design with coastal natural processes? Coastal areas have stronger and more fluctuating natural variables than many sites in more sheltered areas. Understanding the past, present, and future form of these processes will allow the designer to shape a form and program that works with the site-specific...master thesis 2014

(author)In the Weichselian, the Lower Rhine in the Dutch-German border region has used three courses, dissecting ice-marginal topography inherited from the Saalian. In the Late Weichselian, the three courses functioned simultaneously, with the central one gaining importance and the outer ones abandoning. This study aims to reconstruct the fluvial...conference paper 2012

De Vriend, H.J. (author), Wang, Z.B. (author), Ysebaert, T. (author), Herman, P.M.J. (author), Ding, P. (author)This paper compares the Yangtze Estuary in China and the Western Scheldt Estuary in The Netherlands by their morphodynamic and ecological systems, their engineering works and estuarine management issues, and the major challenges in studying them. Physically speaking, the two estuaries are very different. The Yangtze Estuary is much larger and...journal article 2011

Boeser, D.M. (author)Clean drinking water is essential for life. In Bangladesh and the northern part of India however, around the 30 and 40 million people are estimated to be exposed to Arsenic in drinking water at concentrations above the 0.05 mg/L. Studies show that the aquifers of Holocene age near the Ganga River are polluted. These aquifers are between the 10...bachelor thesis 2011

Rutten, G.L. (author)Beachrocks are lithified coastal sedimentary formations which form inside the beach body on short time scales, possibly within a year. Beachrocks can play an important role in the evolution of a shoreline as they fix the normally loose sediments. On the other hand, the evolution of a shoreline could play an important role in the genesis of...master thesis 2011

Van der Wegen, M. (author), Dastgheib, A. (author), Jaffe, B.E. (author), Roelvink, J.A. (author)Applications of process-based morphodynamic models are often constrained by limited availability of data on bed composition, which may have a considerable impact on the modeled morphodynamic development. One may even distinguish a period of “morphodynamic spin-up” in which the model generates the bed level according to some ill-defined initial...journal article 2010
