Zhu, C. (author)Estuarine sediment dynamics involves estuarine hydrodynamics, sediment transport, and morphology, and strongly influence ecosystem dynamics and sustainability. In the current geological epoch, referred to as the Anthropocene, human activities are exerting increasing impacts on the environment on all scales, changing hydrodynamics, sediment...doctoral thesis 2021

de Vet, P.L.M. (author)Intertidal flats — regions of estuaries that emerge every tide from the water — form unique ecosystems. Benthic communities living in the bed are a valuable food source for wading birds. Salt marshes present on these flats further enhance the biodiversity. Through the damping of waves, intertidal flats also contribute to the safety of the...doctoral thesis 2020

Huisman, B.J.A. (author), Vargas Solis, Astrid (author), de Schipper, M.A. (author), Radermacher, M. (author), Ranasinghe, Roshanka (author)Impact of spatial variability in the nearshore bathymetry on net sediment transport rates has been investigated for a selection of observed beach states at the Dutch coast. The beach states comprise a longshore bar trough and two transverse bar rip situations, which were present at the large scale Sand Motor nourishment at the Holland coast....conference paper 2017

Andutta, Fernando P. (author), Helfer, Fernanda (author), de Miranda, Luiz Bruner (author), Deleersnijder, E.L.C. (author), Thomas, Christopher (author), Lemckert, Charles (author)Transport timescales (TTS), namely residence time and exposure time, were computed for adjacent shallow meso-tidal tropical estuarines system using the Lagrangian model D-Waq Part coupled with the hydrodynamic model Delft3D-Flow, and the Constituent-oriented Age and Residence time Theory, CART. The main results are threefold: (a) The TTS...journal article 2016
