This report bundles the annexes for the data report of the overflow tests executed on the Belgian part of the Hedwige-Propserpolder levees. Overflow tests on levees are designed to test the strength of levees and levee covers under the load of a continuously overflowing discharge of water. For this …

In Zeeland worden regelmatig herinrichtingsprojecten uitgevoerd in de omgeving van dijken. Hiervoor kunnen verschillende aanleidingen zijn, zoals benodigde dijkversterking, natuurherstel en gebiedsontwikkeling ten behoeve van woningbouw, economie en recreatie. Vaak gaat het om een combinatie. In deze …

In dit rapport bestuderen we voedselverspilling in de Nederlandse aardappelketen. We brengen hiervoor de keten in kaart en identificeren per ketenschakel de belangrijkste verspillingshotspots. De Nederlandse aardappelketen kan worden onderverdeeld in de volgende ketenschakels: zaadveredeling, teelt van …

Kring of Coastal Engineers workshop, Rotterdam 25 September 2022

Poster. During Polder 2 C’s a winter school and a late summer school were organized to accelerate dissemination of knowledge used and developed within the project to the next generation of flood protection professionals.

Engineers design levees without taking into account animal activity. But in reality: *Levees attract burrowing animals *Many of them are protected (e.g. beavers) *It is not always easy to detect burrows and remove them Topics of interest are: 1. Eco engineering approaches for deterrence of animals …

Rhodomonas salina is a microalgal species, belonging to the cryptophytes, and is widely used as aquaculture feed because of its high nutritional profile and phycoerythrin content. This study investigated the effect of pH on the growth, biochemical composition, and taste of R. salina when cultivated on …

The aroma and taste of eight different phototrophic microalgae species were investigated and compared with five seaweeds to evaluate their potential as flavor ingredients in plant-based seafood alternatives. To assess their per- formance, commercial seafood flavoring products were used as a reference …

Understanding taste is key for optimizing the palatability of seaweeds and other non-animal-based foods rich in protein. The lingual papillae in the mouth hold taste buds with taste receptors for the five gustatory taste qualities. Each taste bud contains three distinct cell types, of which Type II cells …
