Morphodynamics of Texel Inlet, The Netherlands

Publication: Coastal Sediments '07

Abstract

Different aspects of both the short- and long-term morphological evolution of Texel Inlet, and the underlying processes and mechanisms were studied, ranging from long-term descriptions of historic inlet evolution, 1550 A.D. to present, to detailed analyses of hydrodynamics and morphodynamics on the process scale using the latest state of the art process-based models. It is shown that the morphodynamic evolution of the inlet is governed by human intervention. At present a large sediment import (5–6 Mm3/year) prevails as a result of a second-stage adaptation process to the effects of Closure of the Zuiderzee in 1932.
