Agenda voor de Toekomst – Waves in the estuary: analysis of wave measurements at Saeftinghe

One of the questions within the Agenda for the future research is the importance of waves in the estuary. To estimate these, terrain measurements are necessary. Within project 14_082 : “Waves in the estuary”, several measurement campaigns are foreseen, both in the Western Scheldt (Saeftinghe, Hooge Platen) as in the Sea Scheldt (Appels, Notelaer). This report describes the measurements performed at the location of Saeftinghe, in combination with the recorded ship traffic during the same period.
