Modelling strategies for low flow dune behaviour

13/04/2022 - Rivers2Morrow
A dune development model that may be used for predicting dunes must be able to simulate dune behaviour for both high and low flows well.

Trends in de fluxen van zwevend sediment in het stroomgebied van de Rijn (1997-2014)

13/04/2022 - Rivers2Morrow
In this study, we aim to quantify the temporal and downstream changes in annual loads of suspended sediments in the Rhine river basin during the past decades to identify major sources and sinks of sediment.

Massive morphological changes during the 2021 summer flood in the River Meuse

13/04/2022 - Rivers2Morrow
The objective of the study was to improve understanding of the morphological processes during extreme floods, by focusing on the Common Meuse. Here, the riverbed surface is composed of gravel and the longitudinal bed slope is five times steeper than the downstream canalized river.

Mid-Century Channel Response to Climate Change in the Lower Rhine River

13/04/2022 - Rivers2Morrow
The goal of this study is to assess how channel response to climate- related changes in the river controls compares to channel response due to (future) human intervention, focusing on changes in channel bed elevation, bed slope, and bed surface grain size over the next century.

Residual sediment transport in a stratified estuarine channel

13/04/2022 - Rivers2Morrow
Based on field measurements and sediment transport modelling, we aim to unravel the mechanisms controlling residual sediment fluxes in highly stratified estuarine channels, by focusing on the New Waterway.
