Structural and functional biological assessment of aggregate dredging intensity on the Belgian part of the North Sea [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Marine aggregate dredging in the Belgian part of the North Sea (BPNS) is restricted to four dedicated concession zones. Within these zones, there are areas under different dredging pressure, but with the advantage that these are situated within a similar

A parametric study of DMS subjected to induced low-stress consolidation and heat treatment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Dredging activities are important either in the control the accessibility and navigability to harbours or the maintenance to the existing facilities. Dredged marine sediments (DMS) is the products generated from dredging activities.

Under which conditions can tidal reeds contribute to shore protection? The critical interplay between external stress and internal stress resistance in brackish marshes

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.
Abstract Tidal reeds provide essential coastal protection by shielding the shore from the effects of waves and currents, reducing soil erosion or even enabling sediment accretion. However, these environments face increasing threats from human activities and climate change.

Topics in Cement and Concrete Research [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
In recent decades, the construction sector has faced many changes. One of these changes is the shift in the role of national government from one-sided practices in which the government was solely responsible for strategic and long-term spatial planning ...

Effects of dredging on the vegetation in a small lowland river

open access: yesPeerJ, 2019
Background Conventional river engineering operations have a substantial influence on the fluvial ecosystem. Regulation and channelization generally reduce the physical heterogeneity of river beds and banks and the heterogeneity of habitats.

Seasonal variation in bay‐marsh sediment exchange through a back‐barrier salt marsh tidal creek

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.
Abstract Salt marsh resilience to sea‐level rise largely depends on the balance of sediment exchanges with surrounding bays. In this study, we investigate mechanisms that determine residual sediment fluxes using continuous measurements of bay‐marsh sediment exchange conducted in a tidal creek spanning 13 months (753 tidal cycles) in an intertidal marsh

Early recolonization of a dredged lowland river by dragonflies (Insecta: Odonata)

open access: yesKnowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems, 2016
The influence of dredging on the dragonfly assemblages of the small regulated lowland River Krąpiel (north-western Poland) was analyzed a short time after the dredging. Dragonfly assemblages were destroyed, but they began to recover rapidly.

Changes in the vegetation of a small lowland river valley (Krąpiel, NW Poland) after dredging

open access: yesActa Biologica, 2015
The paper presented the impact of dredging on the vegetation of a regulated section of a lowland river based on the example of the Krąpiel River (NW Poland). The field research with pre-investment monitoring was conducted over three vegetation seasons in

Novel Bio-Logging Tool for Studying Fine-Scale Behaviors of Marine Turtles in Response to Sound

open access: yes, 2017
Increases in the spatial scale and intensity of activities that produce marine anthropogenic sound highlight the importance of understanding the impacts and effects of sound on threatened species such as marine turtles.
