Understanding actor perspectives regarding challenges for integrated river basin management

R. J. den Haan, J. M. Fliervoet, M. C. van der Voort, V. J. Cortes Arevalo & S. J. M. H. Hulscher - 09/08/2018 - RiverCare
People use different world views when addressing problems, often resulting in different views on both the problem and its solution. For this paper, we explored management challenges and actor perspectives on these in Dutch integrated river basin management.

CPT based unit weight estimation extended to soft organic soils and peat

Lengkeek, A., de Greef, J., & Joosten, S. - 21/06/2018 - All-Risk
A new correlation is proposed that can be used to estimate the saturated soil unit weight from sands to highly organic soils. Our proposal outperforms other considered correlations. The variation in the estimation is however still considerable and comparable to earlier studies.

Handreiking Voorlanden en Juridische aandachtspunten

H.K. Gilissen, W.J. van Doorn-Hoekveld &. H.F.M.W. van Rijswick - 05/04/2018 - All-Risk
Using the coastal or riverine areas next to the flood defenses may bring benefits beyond flood risk reduction but also several legal questions. Some of these questions were addressed into a decision tool that is part of the foreland guideline.
