Living coastal systems: theme of the upcoming Brunings Lecture. With speakers Maike Paul @LuFI_LUH and @AllertBijleveld @NIOZnieuws. Programme and registration form: bruningslecture.nl/. See you on January 18th! @UU_PhysGeog
Save the date! 18 January 2024: 9th edition of the Brunings Lecture. Curious about what to expect? Take a look at one of the previous lectures: bruningslecture.nl/previous/ @UU_PhysGeog
Maarten Kleinhans @UU_PhysGeog and five other @UniUtrecht professors have been appointed as new members of the Royal Holland Society of Sciences and Humanities (KHMW), the oldest society for the sciences in The Netherlands ow.ly/JFfz50N4icl
We are happy to share that the videos of the @UUGeo 2023 Brunings Lecture are online, including the lectures of @MariaE_Maza and @BregjevW about #NatureBasedSolutions, as well as the lecture of Maarten Kleinhans about Christiaan Brunings!

Yesterday we were happy to host another edition of the #Bruningslecture. Our speaker @BregjevW gave us the clear message that it is essential for ecologists and engineers to construct an adaptive mindset and learn each others languages in order to succeed in #NatureBasedSolutions
At the 8th edition of the #Bruningslecture@MariaE_Maza talks about an "ecosystem approach" for #NBS Nature Based Solutions, aimed at developing and implementing prediction tools based on the physics of coastal waves with considerations of ecosystem resilience and human demands
The North Sea flood of 1953 took place 70 years ago. Back then, higher dykes were the credo; now, there is also an eye for solutions where we build not against but with nature. "Nature, and our solutions" is the topic of the 8th Brunings Lecture on Jan 24 bruningslecture.nl/
Save the date: 8th edition of the annual Brunings Lecture, 24 January 2023, bringing together the scientists, practitioners and managers of rivers and estuaries bruningslecture.nl/@UUGeo
Brilliant article by @vanHinsbergen @geotdf in @rouleur, linking geology & cycling for @LeTour! And an important message....."we are trying to develop a green energy society, which requires finding new ore deposits...." Chapeau!
Straks houdt hoogleraar Vertebratenpaleontologie @Anneschulp zijn oratie. @BNR sprak hem alvast over fossielen zoeken in Nederland (geen vetpot), de magie van pootafdrukken en de nieuwste chemische puzzels. Een mini-dinocollege bnr.nl/podcast/wetenschap-va…
PhD position - Changing Rivers (0.8 - 1.0 FTE) uu.nl/en/organisation/workin… This is your chance to play with the Metronome and do cool science on complex channel networks, with application in dredged estuaries.
Will delta land area grow or decrease in the future under SLR?
Land loss will be around 5% of total global delta area by 2100. 85% is due to SLR.

We need to look at reasons to change, then you can identify adaptation tipping points and adaptation paths - Renske de Winter, Deltares. #BruningsLecture2022#sandysolutions
