Biogeomorphology of large-scale coastal land reclamations
1997Projections are that Rotterdam, one of the worlds' largest harbours, will be in need of 1250 hectares of additional harbour area within the next 15 years. To meet this demand a substantial land reclamation ("Maasvlakte-2") is considered, which could provide 1000 hectares of new harbour areas and 750 hectares for nature and recreation. In addition, just

Progress in coastal sand dune reclamation in Queensland, Australia
International Journal of Biometeorology, 1974Over 75% of Queensland's population of nearly two million people live within 40 km of the coast and there is intense development of parts of the coastal areas. There is therefore great pressure on coastal areas, not only by direct human developments such as towns, industry, and recreation, but also by indirect human agencies such as grazing and burning

Application of High Energy Dynamic Compaction in Coastal Reclamation Areas
Marine Georesources & Geotechnology, 2010High energy dynamic compaction (HEDC) is adopted in a coastal reclamation area because the grain size of backfilled soil mostly ranges between 20 cm and 100 cm. The in situ tests for evaluating the effectiveness of HEDC were performed on the backfilled soil ground.
