The main objective of this project is to observe and interpret the morphodynamic processes on the outer delta of mixed-energy, tide-dominated inlet systems. This is done by the analysis of the mechanisms for residual transport patterns and morphological changes around channels and shoals on the outer delta of the Amelander Inlet and the Texel Inlet, the Netherlands. read more

Morphodynamics and hydrodynamics of an ebb tidal delta
Dynamics of suspended sediment in a marginal reef environment
Within this project, the dynamics of suspended sediment in a highly turbid coral reef environment in West Java, Indonesia, are analyzed. The project comes under the umbrella of the Teluk Banten Research Program, which is part of the Global Change Program of the Royal Netherlands Academy of Sciences (KNAW). The programme aims at the establishment of a scientifically based coastal zone management system for the Bay of Banten, West Java. read more
