EXAMPLES OF DELTARES PROJECTS AND RESEARCH Such as global modelling (GLOSSIS), X-beach, Del 3D Flexible Mesh, BEWARE, SFINCS, Parallel iMOD-SEAWAT, Del-FIAT and CIrcle. These are tools to assess issues relating to floods, coastal erosion, groundwater salinisation, economic damage, cost-benefit analyses and cascade eects. MODELLING SOFTWARE Such as Shoreline Monitor. This is a tool which detects shoreline changes in real time using satellite imagery for any place on earth. SATELLITE DATA Such as Del-FIAT and Adaptation Pathways. An adaptation pathway map provides insight into policy options, the sequencing of actions over time and path dependencies. PLANNING SeepCat is a unique seepage system for preserving fresh groundwater resources on small oceanic islands. The system protects groundwater reserves from salinisation due to sea level rise and overexploitation. SEEPCAT Serious games for stakeholder engagement participation, such as the Green Island game and the Sand Suppletion game. SERIOUS GAMES START! Such as Del-FEWS: Del-FEWS provides an open shell system for managing forecasting processes and/or handling time series data. ! EARLY WARNING SYSTEMS © Deltares Such as GO-FRESH, a project on increasing the volume in fresh groundwater lenses. AQUIFER STORAGE AND RECOVERY Such as testing coral reefs and coastal vegetation in the flume. The aim is to find out how ecosystem changes aect the integrity and resilience of the coastal area. EXPERIMENTAL RESEARCH By forecasting hazards and their possible social conse- quences we support decision- making about interventions to mitigate or prevent water- related insecurity.
