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.

Channel Bed Erosion Characteristics in the Upper Dutch Rhine Bifurcation Region

13/04/2022 - Rivers2Morrow
This abstract focuses on the local channel bed erosion characteristics at the Upper Dutch Rhine bifurcation area. The knowledge can be used to signal trends in the partitioning of water and sediment and prepare mitigation measures to maintain a safe situation.

Anthropogenic Effects on the Contemporary Sediment Budget of the Lower Rhine‐Meuse Delta Channel Network

01/07/2021 - Rivers2Morrow
In this research, we construct sediment budgets which quantify annual changes for the urbanized Rhine‐Meuse Delta of the Netherlands, a typical urban delta experiences changing fluvial and coastal fluxes of sediment, engineering works and dredging and dumping activities. The delta shows a negative sediment budget (more outgoing than incoming sediment) since the 1980s, due to anthropogenic intervention.

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.
