Exploring innovative applications for dredged sediments in the Eastern Scheldt

Hendrik Epping (Student); Sai Divi (Docent); Wietse van de Lageweg (Lector)

The Eastern Scheldt faces sand starvation as a result of the Eastern Scheldt storm surge barrier construction, which has led to a decreased tidal prism and subsequent loss of intertidal areas. These areas are crucial for birds and seals to rest and forage for food. To address this issue, Rijkswaterstaat …

Update Erosion Eastern Scheldt

L. J. O. Beiboer (Student); W. van de Lageweg (Begeleider)

This study aims to provide an update of the erosion rate of the intertidal flats and its subareas in the Eastern Scheldt to generate new predictions for designing and planning sand nourishment on the intertidal flats. Because of the suggestions of a changed rate of erosion in the Eastern Scheldt, the …

Groundwater in the new intertidal area Perkpolder

J.J.E. Schouwenaars (Student); Jenny van der Welle (Begeleider); C.J. Pesch (Begeleider); T. Bouma (Begeleider)

Intertidal areas in the Netherlands suffer from divers pressures in the delta. The Western Scheldt has an open connection to the sea. This system is in use for the Port of Antwerp, for which dredging is required. Therefore, Rijkswaterstaat has to compensate natural areas, among which intertidal areas. Area …

Nature excursions in the Dutch Wadden Sea: tools to integrate tourism, outdoor recreation and nature protection in a natural World Heritage site

Revier, Hans; Folmer, Akke

The international Wadden Sea is an estuarine tidal area along the North Sea coasts of The Netherlands, Germany and Denmark. It is characteristic for regions with sandy coasts and a medium tidal range. Fifty barrier islands separate the Wadden Sea from the North Sea, and an offshore transition zone to …
