Iuorio, Luca (author), Wüthrich, D. (author), Teng, Djimin (author), Hooimeijer, F.L. (author)Coastal dikes have been built for millennia to protect inhabited lands from exceptional high tides and storm events. Currently, many European countries are developing specific programs to integrate the construction of new dikes (or the raising of existing ones) into the built environment to face sea level rising. Technical difficulties in...journal article 2024

Sugano, Keisuke (author), Lu, Simo (author), Hooimeijer, F.L. (author), van de Ven, F.H.M. (author)Within the global transition to sustainable urban water management, Dutch polder cities are also contemplating revitalising their water traditions. One of the keys to this task is to integrate water management into urban design, which is explored but not yet practically instrumentalized in the urban design process. This article introduces the...journal article 2024
