Hardhat is a time series analysis tool developed for use with the Coastal Research instrumented tripods. It splits and calibrates Campbell FSF and Campbell ASCII files. The calibration includes correction for air pressure and conversion to surface elevation. Wave and current parameters can be computed from measured time series. It includes a sophisticated viewing function (Graph) with zoom and pan function. read more

Overwash on mesotidal barrier islands
Washovers are the morphologial and sedimentological product of overwash. In this project we explore the possibilities of a more natural and dynamic type of shoreline management for the West Frisian barrier islands, the Netherlands. This new approach includes the option to reactivate washovers systems in order i) to create a more dynamic, flexible and sustainable type of coastal behaviour; ii) to increase the sediment budgets of barrier islands to cope with sea level rise and iii) to re-establish more vital and rejuvenated beach-dune-salt marsh ecosystems that demonstrate a high biodiversity. read more
