Anna Kroon

Anna is an experienced consultant in performing hydraulic
studies, morphological research, land reclamation projects,
cable route studies and port design. Typical projects she’s
worked on are the port extension of the Port of Rotterdam,
Maasvlakte 2, and the reinforcement of the Hondsbossche
and Pettemer sea defence. At Maasvlakte 2, Anna was
responsible for the derivation of hydraulic boundary
conditions, workability and morphological predictions.
Within the tender for the reinforcement of Hondsbossche
and Pettemer sea defence she was responsible for
the design of the maintenance buffer. In June 2024,
Anna will defend her PhD research on the propagation
of uncertainties in predictions of large-scale sandy
interventions in the coastal zone.

2D effects on dune erosion at maasvlakte 2

Dune erosion due to storm surges and severe wave attack is the primary failure mechanism of sandy sea defences. At a curved coastline, dune erosion is greater than at a straight coastline. However, how much higher is often difficult to predict. This article presents a comparison of field observations and model results of the response of the Maasvlakte 2 curved sandy sea defence to storm attack.
