Dune migration and sand transport rates in tidal estuaries: The example of the river elbe

Zorndt, Anna; Wurpts, Andreas; Schlurmann, Torsten; Ohle, Nino; Strotmann, Thomas (Reston : American Society of Civil Engineers, 2010)

Large parts of the tidal estuary of river Elbe (Germany) are characterized by regular patterns of sand dunes. They are presumed to evolve due to complex sand transport mechanisms and show multi-faceted migration patterns. ...
The influence of extreme events on hydrodynamics and salinities in the weser estuary in the context of climate impact research

Zorndt, Anna C.; Schlurmann, Torsten; Grabemann, Iris (Reston : American Society of Civil Engineers, 2012)

The salinity and its longitudinal distribution in the Weser estuary, Germany, has implications for water management as the estuarine water is needed, e.g., for irrigation of the agricultural used hinterlands and as industrial ...
Influence of retention areas on the propagation of storm surges in the Weser estuary

Zorndt, Anna C.; Goseberg, Nils; Schlurmann, Torsten (Reston : American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), 2014)

The hydrodynamics of estuaries are forced by the tides from the open sea and the river runoff from the catchment area. The hinterland is often low-lying and densely populated and must therefore be protected by dikes. ...
