Nicholls, R.J. (author), Stive, M.J.F. (author), Tol, R.S.J. (author)The coastal zone is one of the most dynamic environments on our planet and is much affected by global change, especially sea-level rise. Coastal environments harbour valuable ecosystems, but they are also hugely important from a societal point of view. This book, which draws on the expertise of 21 leading international coastal scientists,...book chapter 2014

López Royo, M. (author), Burgmeijer, M. (author), Verhagen, H.J. (author)Sectoral professionals, like coastal engineers, need to know how to cooperate in a multi-disciplinary environment, as well as how to present substantial information to (political) decision makers. In order to train (coastal engineering) students in this matter, Unesco-IHE and TU Delft have in their curriculum an Integrated Coastal Zone...conference paper 2015

Verhagen, H.J. (author)Worldwide there is a need for training of engineers to work within the framework of Coastal Zone Management. This has effects on the education of engineers. Moreover, the requirements for an educational program for coastal engineers from developing countries are quite different from the requirements for the training of engineers from the...conference paper 1995

D' Angremond, K. (author), Van de Water, J.P. (author)In July, 1959, the presence of gas in the subsoil of the Province of Groningen in the extreme NE part of the Netherlands was confirmed. Subsequently, it became clear that the mining of the gas would result in considerable subsidence and a disruption of the drainage system of an area adjacent to the North Sea, and situated already partly below...conference paper 2012

Stive, M.J.F. (author)The development of coastal erosion management - addressing typical traditional erosion problems - towards coastal zone management addressing the evaluation of alternative solutions to guarantee a variety of coastal zone functions on their economic time scale - has necessitated the formulation of large-scale coastal evolution (LSCE) models. Using...conference paper 1990

Verhagen, H.J. (author), Pilarczyk, K.W. (author)The coast is a very important aspect of life in the Netherlands. 60 % of the Netherlands is below the sea level, everyone lives less than 200 km from a beach, and for most people the sea is less than 50 km away. But in the Netherlands there is officially no Agency for Coastal Zone Management, neither are there laws on Coastal Zone Management. On...conference paper 1992

Verhagen, H.J. (author)The 350 km long Dutch coast along the North Sea is characterized by alternating coastal stretches of accretion and erosion resp. resulting in seaward and landward displacement retreats of the shoreline. Places of accretion and erosion also vary in time. Behind the dunes are low lying polders (very often with a ground level even below the low...conference paper 1990

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

Ranasinghe, R. (author), Jongejan, R.B. (author), Callaghan, D. (author), Vrijling, J.K. (author)Current methods used to determine Coastal setback lines have several limitations. Furthermore, the historical practice of defining setback lines based on a single deterministic estimate is also proving inadequate with the emergence of risk management style coastal planning frameworks which require probabilistic estimates of coastal recession....conference paper 2012

Hillen, R. (author), Van de Wetering, B.G.M. (author), Verhagen, H.J. (author)The Southern North Sea is bordered by Great-Britain, France, Belgium, The Netherlands, Germany and Denmark. The North Sea basin and its adjacent shorelines are intensively used. Management of the basin and the coastal zone is therefore essential. Because of the small scale of the area, the dense population and the big scale of the interactions,...conference paper 1993

Burgmeijer, M.A. (author), Verhagen, H.J. (author), Van der Wegen, M. (author)Integrated Coastal Zone Management (ICZM) is an interdisciplinary process by definition. Individual actors in CZM need to cooperate and communicate to come to an optimum management strategy for the coastal zone. Because engineers focus on finding the “best” solution in engineering terms, they often are quite surprised that in the end of the day...conference paper 2011

Waterman, R.E. (author)The thesis which appears here is excerpted from the book Integrated Coastal Zone Development via Building with Nature® (Waterman 2008a, 2008b). Although this approach was first applied in the Netherlands, it has gradually been recognized worldwide as a harmonious means of creating land areas for living, working, tourism & recreation, and...doctoral thesis 2010

Falco, E. (author)Italian coastal areas have been subject to strong anthropogenic pressure and urbanization processes over the past 60 years. Urbanization of the protected 300-m strip from shoreline has reached levels of over fifty per cent in some parts of the country. This article, by building on previous quantitative analyses and by providing some more...journal article 2017

Gijsman, R. (author)Relative sea level rise and climate change, but also the migration of the growing world population to the coast, continuously increase the pressure on the coastal system. In combination with the increased awareness for sustainability, the interests in the coastal zone become integrated and complex. Integrated Coastal ZoneManagement (ICZM)...master thesis 2016

Huang, Huang (author)The North Sea has played an important role in European urbanization. Coastal cities thrive on the basis of port economy; but also shrink significantly once the dominated industry recessed. Today, under the threat of climate change, port-dominated homogenous development becomes rather vulnerable to disturbances. Den Helder is the Wadden port-city...master thesis 2019
