Changes in Coastal Morphological Processes Due to the Closure of Tidal Inlets in the SW Netherlands
The closure of the Haringvliet and Grevelingen estuaries in 1970 and 1971 respectively, and the completion of the Oosterschelde storm surge barrier in 1986, have initiated a dramatic change in hydraulic conditions and in the geomorphology of the former ebb tidal deltas. The changes in coastal morphological processes have been studied by integrating the results of analysis of long-term field data and empirical and numerical morphological models. Here, a conceptual model of the dominant processes and actual sediment transport patterns of the former ebb tidal deltas in SW Netherlands is presented... Mehr ...
