A characterization of side channel development

Van Denderen, R.P., R. Schielen, M. Straatsma, M. Kleinhans, S. Hulscher - 01/11/2019 - RiverCare
Side channel generally aggrade. The rate at this occurs depends on the design of the side channel. We propose three categeories of side channels which can be used to estimate the time scale of side channel development

Integrating sense of place in planning and management of multifunctional river landscapes: experiences from five European case studies

Verbrugge, L.N.H., M. Buchecker, X. Garcia, S. Gottwald, S. Müller, S. Præstholm and A. Stahl Olafsson - 06/06/2019 - RiverCare
Comparison between different methods and approaches that were used in case studies from Spain, Germany, Switzerland, the Netherlands, and Denmark.

Ill posedness in modelling two-dimensional morphodynamic problems

Chavarrías, V., Schielen, R., Ottevanger, W., Blom, A. - 11/04/2019 - RiverCare
We reveal the existence of two additional mechanisms under which the 2D system of equations does not provide a unique solution.

A regularization strategy for modeling mixed-sediment river morphodynamics

Chavarrías, V., Stecca, G., Siviglia, A., Blom, A., 2019. - 05/04/2019 - RiverCare
Approach to improve the prediction capabilities under which the most common model does not provide a unique solution.

Residual biomass from Dutch riverine areas—From waste to ecosystem service

Bout, A.E., Pfau, S.F., Krabben, E. van der, Dankbaar, B. - 18/01/2019 - RiverCare
We provide information on biomass applications and type of contractual arrangements for using residual riverine biomass as ecosystem service.

Residual Biomass: A Silver Bullet to Ensure a Sustainable Bioeconomy?

A. E. Bout, S. F. Pfau, E. van der Krabben & B. Dankbaar - 20/12/2018 - RiverCare
Using residual biomass, such as grass and wood chips, as a resource instead of treating it as waste is not automatically more sustainable.

Uncertainty quantification of flood mitigation predictions and implications for decision making

Berends, K. D., Straatsma, M. W., Warmink, J. J., & Hulscher, S. J. M. H. - 14/11/2018 - RiverCare
For six typical interventions along the river Waal, we show that the choice between interventions can be different when relative uncertainty is taken into account.

Predicting effects of ship-induced changes in flow velocity on native and alien molluscs in the littoral zone of lowland rivers

Koopman, R., Collas, F. P. L., Breure, A. M., Lenders, R., van der Velde, G., & Leuven, R. S. E. W. - 12/11/2018 - RiverCare
Shipping increases local flow velocities thereby potentially decreasing species richness of freshwater mussels and snails which in turn affects ecosystem functioning and services.
