van Heteren, S. (author), Oost, A.P. (author), van der Spek, A.J.F. (author), Elias, E.P.L. (author), TNO Bouw en Ondergrond (author)Historical maps of southwest Texel and the adjacent ebb-tidal delta, supplemented with quartz OSL (Optically Stimulated Luminescence) ages of dune sand, span four centuries and show several links between coastal development and ebb-tidal-delta behavior. Updrift inlet migration governed recurved-spit formation, and changes in ebb-tidal-delta size...article 2006

Ballarini, M. (author), Wallinga, J. (author), Murray, A.S. (author), van Heteren, S. (author), Oost, A.P. (author), Bos, A.J.J. (author), van Eijk, C.W.E. (author), Nederlands Instituut voor Toegepaste Geowetenschappen TNO (author)We explore the use of quartz optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) dating for reconstructing coastal evolution on a time scale of decades to a few hundred years. Samples are taken from the accretionary south-west coast of Texel, a barrier island just offshore of the northern Netherlands. The ages of dune ridges are known from historical...article 2003

Nederlands Instituut voor Toegepaste Geowetenschappen TNO (author), Beets, D.J. (author), van der Spek, A.J.F. (author)Flooding of the southern part of the North Sea occurred between 9000 and 8000 BP, when the rate of relative sea-level rise was on the order of 0.7 cm per year for the Dover Strait Region and 1.6 cm per year for the area north of the Frisian Islands, forcing the shoreline to recede rapidly. When relative sea-level rise decelerated after 7000 BP...article 2000
