Measured Gradients in Alongshore Sediment Transport Along the Dutch Coast

In this paper it is aimed to quantify bulk (surf-zone integrated) alongshore sediment transport using morphological data collected along the Dutch coast. The collected morphological data covers a domain of 18 km alongshore including the beach, the foreshore and the intertidal zone in the cross shore. The measurement domain contains the 20...

A Hybrid Approach to Combine Physically Based and Data-Driven Models in Simulating Sediment Transportation

The objective of this study is to develop a methodology for hybrid modelling of sedimentation in a coastal basin or large shallow lake where physically based and data driven approaches are combined. This research was broken down into three blocks. The first block explores the possibility of approximating a physically based model using a data...

The history of the Dutch Coast in the last century

The aims of this paper are: 1. To publish some available coastal measurements and computations of more than local importance. 2. To investigate the influence of groynes in practice. 3. To investigate the motion of the gullies in the outer deltas. The following conclusions are drawn: 1. The gross littoral drift along the Dutch coast is of the...
