Islam, M.F. (author), Schot, P.P. (author), Dekker, S.C. (author), Griffioen, J. (author), Middelkoop, H. (author)The Ganges–Brahmaputra–Meghna delta in Bangladesh is one of the largest and most densely popu lated deltas in the world and is threatened by relative sea level rise (RSLR). Renewed sediment deposition through tidal river management (TRM), a controlled flooding with dike breach, inside the lowest parts of the delta polders (so called beels) can...article 2022

Woolderink, H.A.G. (author), Weisscher, S.A.H. (author), Kleinhans, M.G. (author), Kasse, C. (author), van Balen, R.T. (author)The meandering of alluvial rivers may be forced by normal faulting due to tectonically altered topographic gradients of the river valley and channel at and near the fault zone. Normal faulting can affect river meandering by either instantaneous (e.g. surface-rupturing earthquakes) or gradual displacement. To enhance our under standing of river...article 2022

Feroz Islam, M. (author), Middelkoop, H. (author), Schot, P.P. (author), Dekker, S.C. (author), Griffioen, J. (author)The Ganges-Brahmaputra-Meghna (GBM) delta plain within Bangladesh is one of the most vulnerable to relative sea level rise (RSLR) in the world especially under current anthropogenically modified (i.e., embanked) conditions. Tidal river management (TRM) as practiced in coastal regions of Bangladesh may provide an opportunity to combat RSLR by...article 2021

Woolderink, H.A.G. (author), Cohen, K.M. (author), Kasse, C. (author), Kleinhans, M.G. (author), van Balen, R.T. (author)The tectonic and fluvial setting of the Rhine-Meuse river system in the Lower Rhine Embayment rift system is exceptionally well known. The 19th century, pre-regulation river courses of three rivers are used to study a postulated sinuosity response to faulting. The fault-perpendicular Meuse River shows patterns of sinuosity changes at different...article 2021

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

Avsin, N. (author), Vandenberghe, J. (author), van Balen, R. (author), Klyak, N.G. (author), Oztürk, T. (author)Climate and tectonics effect the fluvial evolution of the Mediterranean Mut basin. The basin contains a river terrace staircase of 16 levels (T16-T1) ranging from 365 to 10A m above the current Goksu River in its middle and lower sections. These river terraces records tectonic uplift in the Mut basin. Optically stimulated luminescence (OSL)...conference paper 2019

Woolderink, H.A.G. (author), Kasse, C. (author), Grooteman, L.P.A. (author), van Balen, R.T. (author)The Roer is a small river which drains the Rhenish shield and confluences with the Meuse River. Up to now the geological, climatological, biostratigraphical, and pedological setting of the Roer Valley were not sufficiently integrated to disentangle the effects of external forcing factors on the Roer River. In this study we perform a detailed and...article 2019

(author)A risk-based safety approach is indispensable to support decision-making on flood protection strategies and measures. In most deltaic areas, flood risk analysis involves more than analysing the flood hazard and the potential damage, and flood defence systems also play an important role. In such systems consisting of rivers, estuaries and flood...article 2013

However, the development of back-barrier basins, especially in river-mouth areas, during such periods is still not well understood. Here we show the...article 2010

This challenge can be split into two main problems: simulating the movement of water and simulating the optical properties of water. This poster focuses on the problem of simulating water movement in complex...conference paper 2010
