Presentations Overview

In the lecture “Climate adaptive coastal structures and the role of wave overtopping predictions” of the Coastlab24 short course the following three items will be discussed: a) Climate adaptation of coastal structure including the climate adaptation pathway approach, b) The latest developments o...

Prof. Heidi Nepf leads a lab at MIT, where she studies the interaction of waves and current with aquatic vegetation and the feedbacks to sediment transport. She and her group develop models for physical processes that determine how vegetated habitats (green infrastructure), such as seagrasses, salt ...

In the lecture several recent developments in laboratory measurement techniques are discussed. Techniques like digital cameras, laser scanners, and IMU sensors are improving in quality and become more accessible every year. They are also increasingly used in hydraulic modelling. Examples are given o...
