Hoogendoorn, Hugo (author)Sandy beaches can be found all over the world and are on the interface between the sea and the land. Important functions of beaches are the protection of the inland to the forces of the sea and providing local opportunities in recreation. The impact of storm events on the beach is therefore an important topic of research especially with future...master thesis 2021

van Bemmelen, C.W.T. (author), de Schipper, M.A. (author), Darnall, J. (author), Aarninkhof, S.G.J. (author)Beach scarps are nearly vertical seaward facing sandy cliffs within the cross-shore beach profile. These features are often associated with eroding (nourished) coastlines and can reach heights of O(2–3 m). An analysis of a six-year dataset of beach scarp presence at the nourished Sand Engine beach shows that the formation of beach scarps at the...journal article 2020

van Bemmelen, Cas (author)Beach scarps are nearly vertical seaward facing walls within the cross-shore beach profile. These features are often associated with eroding (nourished) coastlines and can reach heights of O(2-3 m), leading to serious hazards to beach users and negatively impacting local ecosystems. New insights into beach scarp morphodynamics related to...master thesis 2018

de Schipper, M.A. (author), Darnall, John (author), de Vries, S. (author), Reniers, A.J.H.M. (author)Five years of beach topography data were examined to map the spatio-temporal patterns in beach scarp existence. Data of the Sand Engine were used, a mega scale nourishment implemented in 2011 at the Dutch coast. Topographic data were automatically and manually analyzed to recognize scarps in the dataset. Moments of destruction and persistence of...conference paper 2017
