In 2012 verloren we Jean Jacques Peters, voormalig ingenieur van het Waterbouwkundig Laboratorium (1964 tot 1979) en internationaal expert in sedimenttransport, rivierhydraulica en -morfologie. Als eerbetoon aan hem hebben we potamology (http://www.potamology.com/) gecreëerd, een virtueel gedenkarchief dat als doel heeft om zijn manier van denken en morfologische aanpak van rivierproblemen in de wereld in stand te houden en te verspreiden.
Het merendeel van z’n werk hebben we toegankelijk gemaakt via onderstaande zoekinterface.
Monitoring aeolian activity during a storm event using a video system

Aeolian sand transport was assessed from an Argus camera system located on a macro-tidal beach along the Belgian coast over a period of 4 days covering a storm surge. Over the study period, observed sand transport event occurred for 9.5% of the time when strong high oblique onshore wind (9.8m/s) combined with a water level below 3.75m TAW moved sand to the beach. Measured post-storm topographic profiles indicated an accretion on the total beach upper beach of 0.70m3/m, which was in agreement with the estimated potential sand supply of 0.91m3/m for the observed sand transport event and expected night transport events. Thus, there was a narrow temporal window in which sediment can be supplied to the beach before and after the storm surge. Also, the study highlights that the presence of berm with a relative height of 3m segments sediment transfer to the backshore.
