Anthropogenic effects on the Contemporary Sediment Budget of the Lower Rhine-Meuse Delta Channel Network

J.R. Cox, Y. Huismans, S.M. Knaake, J.R.F.W. Leuven, N.E. Vellinga, M. van der Vegt, A.J.F Hoitink, M.G. Kleinhans - 10/06/2021 - All-Risk
The Rhine-Meuse Delta has a negative budget: Its entire network of channels is losing sediment annually. The reason for this negative budget is the high amounts of sand and mud removed for navigation to inland ports and from harbors which are periodically dredged. A strategy is required to deal with channel degradation and find ways to maintain sediment in the system.

De Rijn-Maasdelta heeft een negatieve balans: Het hele netwerk van kanalen kanalen verliest jaarlijks sediment. De reden voor deze negatieve is te wijten aan de grote hoeveelheden zand en slib die voor de scheepvaart naar binnenhavens en uit havens die periodiek worden gebaggerd. Een strategie is vereist om de aantasting van kanalen aan te pakken en manieren te vinden om de sediment in het systeem te houden.

Multidecadal Analysis of an Engineered River System Reveals Challenges for Model-Based Design of Human Interventions

Berends, K.D.; Gensen, M.R.A.; Warmink, J.J.; Hulscher, S.J.M.H. - 17/05/2021 - All-Risk
The relation between water levels and discharges in the Waal river has been estimated from observations, not finding an effect of Room for the River interventions on water levels.

Evaluating residual dike resistance using the Random Material Point Method

Remmerswaal, G., Vardon, P.J., & Hicks, M.A. - 01/05/2021 - All-Risk
The resistance against flooding after initial failure due to slope instability of an idealised dike reduces the probability of flooding by 25% with respect to the initial failure.

How grazing management can maximise erosion resistance of salt marshes

Marin-Diaz, B., Govers, L. L., van der Wal, D., Olff, H., & Bouma, T. J. - 20/04/2021 - All-Risk
We aimed to determine how salt marsh management (i.e. grazing by large vs. small grazers vs. artificial mowing), marsh elevation and marsh age affect soil stability (i.e. soil collapse) and intrinsic lateral erodibility of salt marshes (i.e. particle-by-particle detachment).
