Institutional work offers a promising lens for understanding institutional change, focusing on the efforts of actors in creating, maintaining or disrupting institutions. In this paper, we explore the capacity of a narrative approach to provide insights on institutional work, using a case study from the coast of Sweden. We identify four...

This paper presents a semi-automated approach to detecting coastal shoreline change with high spatial- and temporal-resolution using X-band synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data. The method was applied at the Sand Motor, a “mega-scale” beach nourishment project in the Netherlands. Natural processes, like waves, wind, and tides, gradually...

This paper discusses the dynamics of coastal policy change in Sweden, using erosion and beach nourishments as an example. The Multiple Stream Model is a theoretical model on agenda setting and policy change developed by the political scientist John Kingdon (1984, 2003). This paper applies Kingdon’s model in describing and explaining coastal...

In recent years, the application of large-scale beach nourishments has been discussed, with the Sand Motor in the Netherlands as the first real-world example. Such protruding beach nourishments have an impact on tidal currents, potentially leading to tidal flow separation and the generation of tidal eddies of<br/>length scales larger than the...

The Sand Engine is a mega-nourishment constructed in 2011 with the purpose of replenishing the surrounding southern Dutch coast by exploiting the strength of local alongshore currents for the next 20 years. Long term monitoring of the Sand Engine depends upon remote sensing coupled with in-situ measurements due to both its large spatial and...

This paper discusses the effectiveness of a mega-nourishment project. Mega-nourishment is a new technology for beach nourishment that has recently been developed. It arises as an alternative to beaches where a structural erosion problem is observed and there is the need for continuously nourishments works. A pilot project was implemented near...

This manual represents a renewed effort by the Department of Land and Water Conservation to present an up-to-date document on how we can best manage our dune landscapes. It builds on the many efforts of past dune managers and offers the community practical advice on the ways we can care for the plants, animals and topographic features within the...

Compensatie van zandverliezen op dieper water komt voort uit een grootschalige benadering van de kust met ruimtelijke eenheden op de schaal van deelsystemen en een tijdseenheid van decennia. Evaluatie van de effectiviteit van dit beleid vereist een monitorprogramma dat op deze tijd- en ruimteschaal is afgestemd. Indien de langere meetraaien...

Sinds de beleidskeuze in 1990 is de uitvoering van 'dynamisch handhaven' met kracht ter hand genomen. Overal langs de kust is de veiligheid tegen overstroming door de zee gehandhaafd. Met het bestrijden van de structurele erosie zijn de mogelijkheden voor behoud en ontwikkeling van functies in de duinen en op het strand toegenomen. Op de meeste...

An analysis of "soft" measurements, in the form of beach nourishment, to protect ourselves against the sea. The rapport covers the following subject with regard to "soft" measurements: - Design of soft solution: review of design tools, practical consequences of morphological theory and failure modes - Construction methods for soft solutions:...

In the Netherlands much land was captured from the sea. At the same time however along the coast severe losses of land occurred. The main reasons were sea level rise and effects of decreasing tidal volumes of estuaries. Besides there were the local effects of shifting tidal channels and periodical movements of the coastline. Building of groynes,...

In the Netherlands today much attention is paid to the effect of coastal structures on the environment. In the past it was usual to quantify the effect of such a structure on its environment solely with the purpose of deciding whether that effect could imply any hazard to the structure itself (or to structures in the neighbourhood). Nowadays...

Langs de Zeeuwse kust bewegen grote massa's zand van zuid naar noord. Deze zandgolven zorgen voor een cyclisch kustgedrag. Bij de besluitvorming over kustverdedigingswerken en strandsuppleties is inzicht in de kinematica van deze golven essentieel.

Along tht coastline at Ter Heijde, near Delft, a dam parallel to the coast in shallow water will be constructed havlng a horizontal crest at the level NAP -3 m on the landward side, merging into the existing coastal profile and having on the seaward side a slope 1:20. The dam will have a length of 1.5 km (fig. 1). This work will be carried out...

When longshore sediment transport is interrupted by a construction along a coast, e.g harbour moles or a dredged approach channel, the equilibrium of the coastline may be disturbed. When the disruption is caused by breakwaters, the longshore transport that is held back will cause accretion updrift of the breakwaters and erosion downdrift of them...
