Netherlands Centre for Coastal Research
Op 10 mei aanstaande organiseren het NCK en de Waddenacademie weer een gezamenlijke themadag. Dit keer staat de (duurzame) economie van de kust en de (Wadden)zee centraal, met bijdragen uit zowel de wetenschap als de praktijk. De (economische) waarde van verschillende aspecten van kust en zee zullen de revue passeren en ongetwijfeld aanleiding geven tot een levendige discussie. We verheugen erop jullie op 10 mei in Den Helder te ontmoeten!
Towards more diverse approaches in Coastal Engineering & Sciences
Coastal engineering changed over the last decades from shortening our coastlines and building barriers to engineering solutions with sand nourishments, rebuilding seagrass meadows and diversifying foreshores. The coastal management toolbox is getting bigger. However, is it already big and diverse enough? Are all tools sufficiently tested? Are new tools needed? Is our knowledge sufficient for applying available tools?
The NCK Days 2023 will be held from 29-31 March 2023 in Theatre De Veste in Delft. On Wednesday we will visit the Maasvlakte and Springertduinen. We'll be inspired by two keynote speakers: Fernando Mendez and Wouter van der Heij. The programme and Book of Abstracts are is now available at the event page!
Best regards,
NCK2023: Anne Ton, Jose Álvarez Antolínez, Paul Bayle, Marion Tissier, Bram van Prooijen
On 16 and 17 March, the Ems-Scheldt symposium will take place at Flanders Hydraulics in Antwerp, Belgium. This symposium will focus in particular on coastal oceanography and biogeomorphology. Are you interested in these topics in the perspective of the Ems/Scheldt? The organizers welcome you to participate.
It is now possible to register and to indicate whether you intend to give a presentation through https://waterbouwkundiglaboratorium.be/nl/schelde-ems-workshop-2023. Deadline for registration is 31 January 2023 and there is a maximum capacity of 100 attendants. So in case you are interested, register now.
