Regel 1: Regel 1:
The area between Middelburg-Vlissingen and Sloehaven, the harbour along the Western Scheldt estuary, is used as agricultural land and forms a bufferzone between the urban environment and port activities. One small part called  Schorerpolder is owned by North Sea Port (NSP). NSP is planning to use the polder for nature compensation as part of a port development plan. The plan is to bring seawater back into the polder by constructing an opening in the dyke. In that way, the polder can develop into a  valuable intertidal habitat, an important habitat for the Western Scheldt estuary which is under pressure. 
A research project on a tidal turbine in the Grevelingen Dam is currently going on. One of the aspects to be investigated are the effects on the hydrodynamics in lake Grevelingen. A larger tidal regime is likely to generate stronger tidal currents, while a smaller tidal regime will dampen the tidal currents. Tidal currents combined with wind-generated waves determine the hydrodynamic forces on the coastal profile. Erosion of the coastal profile is the result if the stabilizing forces (e.g. the type of soil and the presence and type of vegetation) are weaker than the destabilizing hydrodynamic forces 


In this project you will work in a team of students from different disciplines (civil engineering, delta management, and aquatic eco-technology), under supervision of a team of experts form the BwN research group and external partners. The task is to identify furture ecosystem services that may develop once Schorerpolder is under tidal influence. You will be asked to think about opportunities to enhance ecosystem services by using eco-engineering principle. You will be ask to use your research skills and creativity for the development of ambitious, but feasible polder designs. 
The goal of the project is to conduct research on the erosion of vegetated coastal profiles in lake Grevelingen. Field work will be conducted to collect representative samples with different combinations of soil types and vegetation (cover). Then, these samples will undergo standardized erosion tests in a stream lab at NIOZ. The results will be analyzed and reported 


Research type: field research, desk analysis (GIS), stakeholder meetings
The lab experiments will be conducted at NIOZ in Yerseke. Data analysis and reporting may take place at HZ UAS but can also take place at NIOZ.


Research level: graduation bachelor thesis, master River Delta Development  project
'''Research type:''' field work, lab experiments and  desk analysis


Prerequisite: interest in ecology and nature compensation, civil engineering, morphology, transition management
'''Research level:''' graduation bachelor thesis project or internship


Partners: North Sea Port, Zeeuwse Milieuferderatie, Staatsbosbeheer, WMR, NIOZ, Deltares,
