Sediment Dynamics

Advanced Coastal and Estuarine Systems treats, in-depth, coastal and estuarine processes and system behaviour (a.o. waves, tides, currents, coarse and fine sediment transport, morphodynamic change) and response to interventions (a.o. storm surge barriers, groynes, dredging and nourishments). A wide range of coastal systems is considered: deltas, estuaries, beaches and dunes, tidal plains, barrier and lagoon coasts. Not only the physical principles but also their complex interplay in the built and natural environment is discussed. This process knowledge is linked to coastal engineering problems and interventions.
