Floating photovoltaics (FPV) is emerging as a promising renewable energy technology which enables the production of electricity on surface waters. While this technology could potentially make an important contribution to the energy transition, the current uncertainty about the water quality effects of …

Many delta cities worldwide are dealing with the same kind of problems: rising of the sea level, land subsidence, scarcity of land and illegal housing. Multiple land use is one of these solutions that will help to reduce flooding and scarcity of land. An example of multiple land use is a floating community. …

There is a clear demand for a collaborative knowledge-sharing on climate adaptation and mitigation. The aim of most climate adaptation platforms is (inter)national knowledge exchange and raising awareness about climate adaptation in urban areas and promote solutions such as Nature-based solutions (NBS) …

Een grootschalig opgezet onderzoek, waaraan Nederland deelneemt, laat zien dat de ecosystemen onder drijvende objecten nauwelijks worden benadeeld door bijvoorbeeld de beperkte lichttoetreding. Vervolgonderzoek richt zich op het leggen van verbanden tussen de ecoscans en waterkwaliteitmetingen en de …

This bachelor thesis reports on a study conducted at the research institute IMARES in the Netherlands. It focused on plastics ingested by northern fulmars (Fulmarus glacialis) around the North Sea region as a contribution to a better understanding of the fulmar in its role as an indicator for marine …
