The Damen 3717 SWATH is currently under construction at the Schelde Yard of Damen Shipyards and this paper describes the work undertaken in the detail design of the vessel. Chapter 1 describes the essential project requirements, whilst chapter 2 goes into more detail on the actual design of the SWATH vessels. Chapter 3 relates to the construction of the SWATH vessels.

In mid-2001, the PZ opted to directly procure two SWATH vessels which would give them the possibility of having a bare boat charter for concession periods of six years to a private operator. As a result, a yard pre-selection and evaluation was carried out in accordance with European directives. Tender documents consisting of a tender outline specification and concept contract were made by SMS on behalf of the PZ. This was followed by a tender evaluation at the end of 2001. The contract negotiations with Damen Shipyards (DSG) commenced at the beginning of 2002. This resulted in a final Shipbuilding Contract and Building Specification which were prepared by SMS, in cooperation with DSG, Figure 1 : Computer Rendering and a contract award between the PZ and DSG on March 26, 2002.

In order to prevent seasickness, the limitation of the vertical accelerations was considered as being the main The Western Scheldt river is the approach to several reason for selecting small type vessels of the SWATH major ports in Southern Holland and to the Port of design suitable for the safe and comfortable transport of Antwerp. It is used by many seagoing as well as inland passengers. vessels. The Western Scheldt is an estuary with strong tidal currents, many sandbanks and shallow water areas.

The purpose of this model is to support managers of the Scheldt estuary with the tools to evaluate a number of managerial issues. Five phases have been defined in the work plan: 1 set-up of mud model 2 elaboration of managerial questions 3 year simulations 4 detail studies 5 sediment mixtures. In 2006, the first two phases were initiated. The set-up of the hydrodynamic and mud transport model was reported in Van Kessel et al. (2006), whereas the managerial issues were elaborated in Bruens et al. (2006). In 2007, the activities were based on the original work plan (items 1 through 3), but also took into account the findings from the set-up of the mud model and the discussions with Scheldt estuary managers during 2006.

  • O N the Distribution of Eurytemora Affinis (P Oppe) (Copepoda)
    Verh. Internat. Verein. Limnol. J t8f 1462-1672 Leningrad, Dezember 11173 On the distribution of Eurytemora affinis (P o p p e) (Copepoda) in the Western Scheldt estuary Niels De Pauw With 4 figures and 4 tables in the text Introduction The phyto- and zooplankton composition and its distribution in the Western Scheldt Estuary was studied for a period of three years, in relation to several ecological para­ meters such as salinity, temperatura, oxygen, nutrients, ete. (cf. de P a u w 1971). The Scheldt is a coastal plain estuary with a vertically homogeneous type of circulation, according to the classification of B o w d e n (1967) and showing a regular chlorinity (salinity) - gradient going from nearly pure sea water at the rivermouth to freshwater some 100 km inland (see Fig. 4). The chlorinity is mainly dependent on discharge of fresh water, fluctuating between a few and several hundred m3/sec (cf. C o d d e 1951 and P e­ e l e n 1967). As a result, the isohalines in the estuary can shift over considerable di­ stances during the course of the year. Copepods were the main component of the zooplankton in the Scheldt estuary. Within this group, the holoplanktonic calanoid copepod species Eurytemora afftnis occurred cer­ tainly in the largest numbers and persisted throughout the year. In the literatura much attention has been paid to the biology of this, in the northern hemisphere, widely di­ stributed species (S a r s 1903; P e s t a 1929; G u r n e y 1931; J e f f r i e s 1962 and K a t o n a 1970) which is quantitatively very productive and may constitute an important food for many fishes (cf.
