Pierik, H.J. (author), Leuven, J.R.F.W. (author), Busschers, F.S. (author), Hijma, M. (author), Kleinhans, M.G. (author)Estuaries comprise channels vital for economic activity and bars as valuable habi tats. They are increasingly under human-induced pressures (e.g. sea-level rise and dredging), resulting in morphological changes that affect navigability, flood safety and ecology. Antecedent geology may strongly steer how estuary channels will adapt to these...article 2022

(author), van Heteren, S. (author), Hijma, M.P. (author), Reichart, G.J. (author), Gaffney, V. (author)This paper describes some results of the research undertaken over the Brown Bank area during recent (2018/ 2019) geoarchaeological surveys in the North Sea which included seismic imaging, shallow (vibro)coring and dredging. It examines the benefits of simultaneous high-resolution (0.5 – 1 m) and ultra-high-resolution (10–20 cm) seismic survey...article 2021

Meijer, T. (author), Pouwer, R. (author), Cleveringa, P. (author), de Wolf, H. (author), Busschers, F.S. (author), Wesselingh, F.P. (author)When dealing with stratigraphic successions in marginal basin settings, the geological record is often fragmented due to erosion and reworking processes. The North Sea Basin is an example: it has a fragmented Quaternary record; in particular, Middle Pleistocene intervals are poorly known. As a result, we have little insight into climate, marine...article 2021

(author), Krasnoperov, M.Y. (author), van Balen, R.T. (author)This study investigates the Holocene levee deposits and paleoflooding history of the Lower Meuse in the Netherlands based on archeological investigations and sedimentary analyses (grain size, end-member modelling, magnetic susceptibility and thermogravimetric analyses). The levee on the left bank in the study area near Ooijen contains a...article 2020

(author)This study investigates Holocene floodplain evolution and flooding phases as experienced in the Lower Meuse catchment, primarily based on grain-size distributions of channel-fill and floodplain deposits in sediment cores.

Woolderink, H.A.G. (author), Kasse, C. (author), Cohen, K.M. (author), Hoek, W.Z. (author), van Balen, R.T. (author)The Lower Meuse Valley crosses the Roer Valley Rift System and provides an outstanding example of well-preserved late glacial and Holocene river terraces. The formation, preservation, and morphology of these terraces vary due to reach-specific conditions, a phenomenon that has been underappreciated in past studies. A detailed palaeogeographic...conference paper 2019

van Asselen, S. (author), Cohen, K.M. (author), Stouthamer, E. (author)By redistributing water and sediment in delta plains, avulsions of river branches have major environmental impacts, notably in changing hydrological and peat-forming conditions in floodbasins. The central part of the Rhine-Meuse delta, with its extensive databases including detailed lithological data and high-resolution age control, offers a...article 2017

(author)This study provides an overview of existing palynological and chronological data of the northern Meuse valley which have been collected over recent decades. The palynological data were used to make a vegetation reconstruction in time and space for the Lateglacial and early Holocene. The vegetation development is strongly influenced by the rapid...article 2017

Minderhoud, P.S.J. (author), Cohen, K.M. (author), Toonen, W.H.J. (author), Erkens, G. (author), Hoek, W.Z. (author)Lacustrine fills, including those of oxbow lakes in river floodplains, often hold valuable sedimentary and biological proxy records of palaeo-environmental change. Precise dating of accumulated sediments at levels throughout these records is crucial for interpretation and correlation of (proxy) data existing within the fills. Typically, dates...article 2016

Koster, K. (author), Erkens, G. (author), Zwanenburg, C. (author)Land subsidence threatens many coastal areas. Quantifying current and predicting future subsidence are essential to sustain the viability of these areas with respect to rising sea levels. Despite its scale and severity, methods to quantify subsidence are scarce. In peat-rich subsidence hot spots, subsidence is often caused by peat compression....article 2016

Griffioen, J. (author), Vermooten, S. (author), Janssen, G. (author)With the exception of the south of the country, the Netherlands has a strong bipartite hydrogeology: the Holocene part with a coastal dune belt and confining top layer of clay and peat further inland, and the Pleistocene, where thick phreatic aquifers dominate. This research aimed to ascertain the geochemical and palaeohydrological controls on...article 2013

Bos, I.J. (author), Busschers, F.S. (author), Hoek, W.Z. (author)Peat and gyttja (organic lake sediment) are important indicators for past environmental conditions; they form in areas where the supply of clastic sediment is insufficient to fill the accommodation space. Previous studies of delta sediments, however, have focused mainly on clastic deposits, whereas organics have received only minimal attention....article 2012

Bos, I.J. (author), Stouthamer, E.
