Because large parts of The Netherlands lie below sea level and are largely protected from flooding by a narrow strip of sandy beaches and dunes, optimal management of this coastal strip is of vital importance. This work extends the existing knowledge of dune erosion during storm surges as it occurs along the Dutch coast. Among the areas discussed are: a large scale erosion experiment designed to improve insight into near dune hydrodynamics, sediment transport and interaction between dune face and swash zone; detailed modeling to study dune erosion physics, validated against measurements, and a morphodynamic dune erosion model applied in a variety of dune erosion conditions. This publication represents a valuable contribution to an improved understanding of dune erosion, an increasingly important area of study with regard to climate change and rising sea levels.

Download Application of the Dutch Method for Estimating Storm-induced Dune Erosion Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
The Delft Hydraulics Laboratory of the Netherlands has developed a reasonable and simple method for estimating dune and beach erosion caused by severe storms. The method requires knowledge of the sediment size, wave height, and surge level. Major assumptions are that the expected shape of the poststorm beach profile can be perdicted by the incident deepwater wave height and sediment size, and that the amount of material eroded will equal the deposition (i.e., cross-shore transport). The method has been verified for the Dutch coast based on both field measurements and laboratory experiments. An evaluation using a limited amount of data for the Atlantic and Gulf coasts of the United States found quantitative agreement with the method, justifying its application to storm conditions in the United States. This report discusses the method and identifies its inherent limitations. The procedure may be solved graphically or by using the included FORTRAN computer program.
