Kwakkel, J.H. (author), Slinger, J.H. (author)Coastal communities dependent upon groundwater resources for drinking water and irrigation are vulnerable to salinization of the groundwater reserve. The increasing uncertainty associated with changing climatic conditions, population and economic development, and technological advances poses significant challenges for freshwater management. The...conference paper 2012

Ranganathan, P. (author), Van Hemert, P. (author), Rudolph, S.J. (author), Zitha, P.L.J. (author)Simulations are performed to evaluate the feasibility of a potential site within the Rotliegend sandstone formation in the Dutch subsurface at a depth of around 3000 m for CO2 sequestration using the numerical simulator CMG-GEM. Three CO2 storage trapping mechanisms are studied: (1) mobility trapping, (2) solubility trapping, and (3) mineral...journal article 2011

Zethof, M. (author)The fresh water supply will be more under pressure, due to the predicted effects of climate change in the Netherlands. More frequent salt water intrusion during the summer semester is caused by the joint occurrence of low river discharges and the expected sea level rise. The control of external salinity is necessary to guarantee a sufficient...master thesis 2011

De Nijs, M.A.J. (author), Pietrzak, J.D. (author), Winterwerp, J.C. (author)An analysis of field measurements recorded over a tidal cycle in the Rotterdam Waterway is presented. These measurements are the first to elucidate the processes influencing the along-channel current structure and the excursion of the salt wedge in this estuary. The salt wedge structure remained stable throughout the measuring period. The...journal article 2011

Tian, Z. (author)Membrane fouling problem is one of the most crucial issues which restricts the development of MBR and is, therefore, the prime research topic for many researchers worldwide. Anaerobic MBRs offer interesting perspectives as a potential solution for the treatment of wastewaters under extreme conditions, e.g. high temperature and/or high salt...master thesis 2010

Van den Heuvel, S. (author)The area of New Orleans was hit by Hurricane Katrina in August 2005. A large part of the city got flooded due to bad design, construction and maintenance of the levee system. In order to increase the level of protection of the city, the levees are heightened and strengthened in the framework of the Hurricane and Storm Damage and Risk Reduction...master thesis 2010

Quak, R.W. (author)Blue energy is a technique that converts the difference of molar free energy between fresh river water, and salt sea water into electricity. Theoretically, 1,5MW can be won when mixing flows of 1m3/s of river water with sea water. Taking into account all losses that occur in the system, makes that the net power is approximately 1,0MW/m3/s. For a...master thesis 2009

Friesen, J. (author), Rodgers, C. (author), Oguntunde, P.G. (author), Hendrickx, J.M.H. (author), Van de Giesen, N. (author)In West Africa, which is an extremely moisturelimited region, soil water information plays a vital role in hydrologic and meteorologic modeling for improved water resource planning and food security. Recent and upcoming satellite missions, such as SMOS and MetOp, hold promise for the regional observation of soil moisture. The resolution of the...journal article 2008

Schoenmakers, N.W.A. (author)Puget Sound is a large glacially carved basin, in between the Cascade and Olympic mountains in the northwest of Washington state, United States. A shallow sill at the north end of Admirality Inlet separates Puget Sound from the strait of Juan de Fuca. To better understand Puget Sound and the changes the region undergoes, it is necessary to be...master thesis 2007

(author)The composition and seasonal dynamics of biofilm-associated eukaryotic communities were analysed at the metre and kilometre scale along a salinity gradient in the Westerschelde estuary (The Netherlands), using microscopy and a genetic fingerprinting technique (PCR-DGGE). Microphytobenthic biomass, measured as chlorophyll a (chl a), varied...journal article 2007

Hartmann, L. (author)Researchers at the Laboratory for Process Equipment at Delft University of Technology have developed an energy-friendly method to separate saline solutions into clean water and pure salt crystals. The method works by crystallizing the water and salt simultaneously though independently from each other. One of the many useful applications of what...journal article 2001

Berghuis, E.P.D. (author)Lake Maracaibo, Venezuela is an outstanding example of today's conflict of interests between protection of natural resources and economic development because of the extensive use of the area. The exchange and interaction between the fresh water of the Lake and the saline water from the Gulf of Venezuela is an important mechanism in the...master thesis 1995

Absil, M.C.P. (author), Gerringa, L.J.A. (author), Wolterbeek, H.T. (author)The radiotracer 64Cu was used to assess the influence of natural organic ligands on the bioavailability of copper. Biological availability of the 64Cu-complexes was measured by accumulation in the bivalve Macoma balthica. The experiments were carried out in April as well as in February with water from the relatively clean Oosterschelde Sea arm...journal article 1993
