Insight into the local bed-level dynamics to assist management of multi-funtional rivers

van Denderen, R. P., Paarlberg, A. J., Augustijn, D. C. M., & Schielen, R. M. J. - 11/02/2021 - RiverCare
River discharge fluctuations cause bed-level variations at various scales, resulting from spatial gradients in the river’s geometry. Insight into these bed-level variations and their relation to discharge fluctuations can help to predict and prevent the formation of local bottlenecks. In this paper, we use bi-weekly bed-level measurements of the river Waal to estimate the bed-level variations related to the river discharge.

Laying bare systemic river bed changes in the river Rhine

Huthoff, F., van Denderen, P., & Paarlberg, A. - 11/02/2021 - RiverCare
It is important to link cause-and-effect relations between bed response and their dominating triggers. This is particularly important in highly-engineered navigable rivers, where multiple influences from close-by and further away can obscure the dominating causes of local bed level changes, and thereby possibly point in the wrong direction when it comes to sustainable river management practices.

Future sediment budget and distribution for the Rhine-Meuse delta

11/02/2021 - Rivers2Morrow
The Rhine-Meuse delta in the Netherlands has a negative sediment budget, i.e. it annually looses sediment. In this research, we construct a sediment budget for two future scenarios 2050 and 2085 which incorporate both socio-economic change and climate scenarios for the region

The evolution of primary dunes during low flows on the Waal river

11/02/2021 - Rivers2Morrow
In this study, we investigate the dune evolution in a stretch of 2 km Waal iver, the Netherlands, between the cities of Tiel and St. Andries, focusing on the low water period of 2018. The bed elevation profiles are based on Multibeam Echo Sounding (MBES) measurements of the fairway, measured on average once per two weeks.

Scenarios for Controls of River Response to Climate Change in the Lower Rhine River

11/02/2021 - Rivers2Morrow
We discuss the projected changes of the hydrodynamic river controls over the 21st century, and how they can be transformed into suitable boundary conditions for a schematized model. Here we consider the Lower Rhine River, from Bonn (Germany) to Gorinchem (Netherlands).

Efficient long-term one-dimensional morphodynamic modelling in alluvial rivers using simplified models – theory and validation

11/02/2021 - Rivers2Morrow
The scope of this research is to assess how and when model simplifications are possible, without jeopardizing the predictive capacity in terms of sediment transport and riverbed development.

Flow Structure at the Pannerdense Kop Bifurcation

11/02/2021 - Rivers2Morrow
Flow structure provides useful information regarding these by detailing the threedimensional features of flow. This abstract mainly focuses on some of the observations from the ADCP surveys performed between November 2019 and February 2020 at the Pannerdense Kop
