van Leer, Martijn D. (author), Zaadnoordijk, Willem (author), Zech, Alraune (author), Buma, Jelle (author), Harting, Ronald (author), Bierkens, Marc F.P. (author), Griffioen, Jasper (author)Aquitards are common hydrogeological features and their hydraulic conductivity is an important property for various groundwater management issues. Predicting their hydraulic conductivity proves challenging, given its dependence on numerous variables. In this study, the dominant factors for predicting aquitard hydraulic conductivity are...journal article 2023

Tao, Y. (author), Petrović, A. (author), van Ham, M. (author), Fu, Xingxing (author)Residential self-selection studies argue that pre-existing travel-related attitude overshadows the role of changes in residential built environment in (re)shaping travel behaviours. Our study contributes to this self-selection argument by including family- and job-related life events as another self-selection source, and accounting for the...journal article 2023

(author), Kruijt, Bart (author), van der Molen, Michiel (author), Uijlenhoet, R. (author)Land cover controls the land-atmosphere exchange of water and energy through the partitioning of solar energy into latent and sensible heat. Observations over all land cover types at the regional scale are required to study these turbulent flux dynamics over a landscape. Here, we aim to study how the control of daily and midday latent and...journal article 2023

Scerri, Karyn (author), Attard, Maria (author), Duives, D.C. (author), Cats, O. (author)Understanding people’s travel behavior is key to creating spaces that discourage car use, especially for short, walkable distances. The scope of this study is to understand better people’s propensity to use a car rather than walk for short-distance trips by focusing on the concept of perceived exertion (PE). A comparison is performed of two...journal article 2023

Marulo, F. (author)In the context of rapid urban transformations, this thesis explores the possible preservation strategies for historic military systems that used to be embedded in extra-urban settings, but that now are absorbed in the development dynamics of complex metropolitan areas. The research stems from the main peculiarity of these heritage systems:...doctoral thesis 2022

Huisman, C.J. (author), Czischke, D.K. (author)To a large extent, established formal participation schemes fail to deliver on their promise of transferring substantial power to tenants, while self-organized housing remains a niche for those who have a strong inclination and ample resources. Given the rise of renting in Europe, and the intensifying housing crisis, increasing tenants’...journal article 2022

Hobma, Fred (author)Legislation is seen both as a problem and a solution for the lengthy process of spatial decision-making. The new Environment and Planning Act aims to speed up and improve decision-making on spatial projects. That sounds promising as an answer to the housing shortage. Can we indeed expect the Act to speed up housing projects? Will legal problems...journal article 2022

Lambach, J.W. (author), Bricker, J.D. (author), Marence, Miroslav (author)The Meuse river in the Netherlands has been made navigable by the construction of a cascade of seven low head weirs. Because of environmental regulations, hydropower facilities exist at only two weirs. This implies the full hydropower potential of the Meuse cascade is not utilized. By using pump-turbines the river sections upstream of the weirs...journal article 2022
