Rijnsburger, S. (author), Flores, Raúl P. (author), Pietrzak, J.D. (author), Horner-Devine, Alexander R. (author), Souza, Alejandro J. (author), Zijl, Firmijn (author)The Rhine region of freshwater influence (ROFI) is strongly stratified, rotational, relatively shallow and has large tides, resulting in a dynamic field of fronts that are formed by multiple processes. We use a 3D numerical model to obtain a conceptual picture of the frontal structure and the processes responsible for generating this multiple...journal article 2021

Flores, Raúl P. (author), Rijnsburger, S. (author), Horner-Devine, Alexander R. (author), Souza, Alejandro J. (author), Pietrzak, J.D. (author)We present measurements of along and across-shore sediment transport in a region of the Dutch coast 10 km north of the Rhine River mouth. This section of the coast is characterized by strong vertical density stratification because it is within the midfield region of the Rhine region of freshwater influence, where processes typical of the far...journal article 2017

Rijnsburger, S. (author), Audibert, R.F. (author), Souza, Alejandro J. (author), Horner-Devine, Alexander R. (author), Pietrzak, J.D. (author)River plumes, also regions of freshwater influence , are important features to understand because of their impact on the current structure, stratification and the transport of fine sediments, nutrients and contaminants. One important river plume is the Rhine ROFI. Prior studies have sought to understand far-field dynamics where cross-shore...abstract 2016

Henriquez, M. (author), Meirelles, S. (author), Horner-Devine, A.R. (author), Souza, A.J. (author), Pietrzak, J.D. (author), Stive, M.J.F. (author)The South-Holland coast of the Netherlands undergoes the influence of the Rhine river plume released from the Rotterdam waterways. An experiment, STRAINS, was conducted to study the impact of the fresh water on the nearshore hydrodynamics and sand transport. As part of the experiment, an instrumented bottom frame measured the near-bed...conference paper 2014
