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 |
A working group within the World Association for Waterborne Transport Infrastructure (PIANC) Environmental Commission is developing a standard of practice to support ports and other public and commercial navigation interests in managing environmental risks associated with navigation infrastructure projects. Decision making to manage these risks involves economic and environmental costs and is complicated by diverse policies, perspectives, risk attitudes, and personal values. The report will provide a robust, practical approach to managing environmental risks that considers physical, chemical, biological, and socioeconomic processes that can span broad spatial and temporal scales. Understanding and articulating uncertainties related to these processes is essential to developing projections regarding future risk management actions and adaptive management strategies. An overview will be provided of the structured management process through which actions for reducing environmental risks are identified, evaluated, selected, and implemented. Uncertainty (e.g., short-term infrastructure operations), long-range risks (e.g., climate change), residual risk, resiliency of natural features, and the role of sustainability and life-cycle analysis in risk management will be discussed. The approach is compatible with PIANC's working with nature philosophy. |
