Martens, D. (author)East Coast Park is a 15 km long coastal park along the southeast coast of Singapore. It is built on entirely reclaimed land and comprises a sandy shoreline. The beaches along this shoreline are formed due to the implementation of anthropogenic structures all along this stretch of coast through so-called headland control. These structures were...master thesis 2013

Giardino, A. (author), Santinelli, G. (author), Bruens, A. (author)Over more than a thousand years, the Dutch coast has been eroding for large stretches. Coastal retreat puts coastal functions (e.g. safety against flooding) under pressure. Since 1990, the Dutch policy aims at preventing further retreat of the coastline, but in the meantime taking the valuable dynamical behaviour of the coast into account....report 2012

Slijk, R.V. (author), Schadee, L.W. (author), Knook, P.P. (author), Van der Salm, G.L.S. (author), Notenboom, P.D. (author)Manado City is growing, its population is increasing. This demands the city to grow outside its borders and even into the sea by using land reclamation. Introducing new challenges or making challenges bigger, which are already present. Not only growth is present in the city, going forward and becoming better and better is an on-going fight for...student report 2011

Rutten, G.L. (author)Beachrocks are lithified coastal sedimentary formations which form inside the beach body on short time scales, possibly within a year. Beachrocks can play an important role in the evolution of a shoreline as they fix the normally loose sediments. On the other hand, the evolution of a shoreline could play an important role in the genesis of...master thesis 2011

Drieman, R. (author)The coast of Bulgaria is subject to erosion. Because of this fact, around the town of Balchik, which is situated on the Black Sea coast, almost no sandy beaches are present. Last years there have been vast tourist developments in and around Balchik. Because of these developments, the province demands solutions to adapt coastal protection...master thesis 2011

Roode, N. (author)In project Safecoast, we have learned from each other by discussing our approaches to coastal flood and erosion risk management. Faced with climate change, and associated impacts on our coasts, it has proven important to analyse, compare and benchmark our methods and ideas. We found that despite the variety in societal attitudes and approaches...report 2008

Ten Ham, D. (author), Henrotte, J. (author), Kraaijeveld, R. (author), Milosevic, M. (author), Smit, P. (author)The ongoing erosion of the Negril Beach has become worse the past decade. In most places along the coast line, the beach will be gone in approximately 10 years. This will result in a major decrease of incomes that are made by the local tourist sector. To prevent the erosion this study has been performed to find a feasible and affordable solution...student report 2006

Since the seventies, the establishment of hotels and other facilities has increased the pressure on the Kenyan coast. During the last decade, hotel managers and residents in Diani Beach have been experiencing problems with erosion. The only measures taken to address the problem are individually built seawalls to protect...student report 2006

Häglund, M. (author), Svensson, P. (author)Many coastal areas in Vietnam suffer from erosion. One of the worst affected areas is the Hai Hau beach, located in the Red River delta in northern Vietnam. Over the last hundred years, vast parts of the beach have eroded at an average rate of approximately 25 m per year. Important agricultural land has vanished into the sea and families have...report 2002

Furthermore measures against this erosion have been examined and a fishery port has been designed. Finally the feasibility of both these actions has been...master thesis 2001

Luning, P. (author)Kennis van het gedrag van de Nederlandse kust is noodzakelijk voor een verantwoord kustbeleid op de lange en korte termijn. Tot nu toe wordt er bij het beheer van de kust gebruik gemaakt van modellen die de afslag voorspellen als gevolg van extreme condities. Wat er met het kustgebied gebeurt als gevolg van de gemiddelde condities kan nog niet...master thesis 1999

Verhagen, H.J. (author)The erosion of a nourished beach may be conveniently described as the sum of the linear coastal retreat and a surcharge which decreases exponentially in time. Application of this model to data from eight nourishment projects in north-western Europe has shown on average only 52% of nourished volume becomes a permanent part of the coastal volume....report 1996

Verhagen, H.J. (author)The government of The Netherlands has decided in the summer of 1990 to maintai.n the coastline at the position of 1990. This will be done mainly by artificial beach nourishment. The costs will be paid by the national government. The purpose of this coastal maintenance is to maintain a sufficient level of safety and to maintain the various...conference paper 1991
