Over het archief
Het OWA, het open archief van het Waterbouwkundig Laboratorium heeft tot doel alle vrij toegankelijke onderzoeksresultaten van dit instituut in digitale vorm aan te bieden. Op die manier wil het de zichtbaarheid, verspreiding en gebruik van deze onderzoeksresultaten, alsook de wetenschappelijke communicatie maximaal bevorderen.
Dit archief wordt uitgebouwd en beheerd volgens de principes van de Open Access Movement, en het daaruit ontstane Open Archives Initiative.

Abstract |
To evaluate the success of this new disposal strategy an extensive monitoring programme was set up . Frequent (2-weekly up to two-monthly) topo-bathymetric surveys using multibeam echo sounding are performed in combination with seasonal sedimentation-erosion measurements using both RTK (intertidal) and singlebeam (subtidal). Also flow velocities on 10 transects, each consisting of 4 measurements points, in the shallow subtidal and the intertidal zone near the disposal locations are monitored using ADCP’s (Nortek – AquaDopp). The ADCP devices on the intertidal zone are dug in the sandbar and look upward, allowing maximal vertical resolution when flooded during the tidal cycle. Parallel with the monitoring, a validated 2D-numerical hydrodynamic model is used to evaluate the effects of the disposal of sediments. Every three months, a simulation is performed using the most recent topo-bathymetry. This allows an evaluation of the changes in flow velocities and flow patterns near the disposal areas. A special “protocol” (see Depreiter et al., 2012) with several criteria was developed to evaluate the monitoring results and the success of the new disposal strategy. |
