Migrating Pools in Yangtze River

The severity and location of bank erosion and bed scour changes with the variation of water level. At low flows, the main flow thread tends to follow the concave bank. As the discharge increases, the flow tends to cut across the convex bar, to concentrate against concave bank only downstream the bend apex. This change of flow pattern is...

Landscape Approach Greater Bay Area, China: Landscape architecture explorations in the Pearl River Delta, Beijing and Jakarta through eight MSc-graduation projects

This publication presents the results of a design lab that explores landscape-based design approaches for adaptive urban transformation in fast urbanizing deltas. While using design as a research strategy landscape architecture principles are explored that ensure water safety and inclusive socio-ecological design. The projects as presented here...
