Email: [email protected] Manuscript received: 26 November 2013, accepted: 14 May 2014 Abstract Flevoland (central Netherlands) is an area of long-term discontinuous deposition that has been reclaimed from the Zuiderzee in the 20th century. Before the reclamation, the Zuiderzee had been in a phase of enlargement, threatening inhabitants on the islands and the shores, since the Medieval Period. During this phase, a surficial clay cover was deposited on the island of Schokland (World Heritage Site: Noordoostpolder, northern Flevoland). We have studied the clay sequence in order to reconstruct the island’s flooding history during the last 1200 years. The depositional history of the youn- gest clay deposit on Schokland is inferred from a literature study, analyses of a digital elevation model, six coring transects, three new 14C accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) dates and laboratory analyses.

There simply were none. And then I came here. He had such a „men’s club“ and we went out toge- ther. There in the bus, I spoke to a Catholic for the first time. It was very nice and we got along really well. That was a real revelation. I will never forget how when the bus arrived in Nagele one of them said: Well, Reintje, if we never meet again we will meet in heaven. We as Christians would have ne- ver said something like this. We did not talk about such things. Back then we used to cycle to church in Urk. And there we were pulled off our bicycles because you I am Hendrik te Raa, called Henk. were not allowed to ride your bicycle on Sundays in Urk. Yes, this is what it was like.

Renes Masterthesis Human Geography & Planning Universiteit Utrecht Forget About World Heritage: What Are the Values? A Research Into Lay People’s Heritage Perception in World Heritage Nominations Thijs Konijnendijk Student No. 3017540 Supervisor: dr. H. Renes Masterthesis Research Master Human Geography & Planning Universiteit Utrecht, August 2010 Cover illustration: World Heritage Site Schokland and Surroundings Image by Thijs Konijnendijk 2 Preface The preface of a thesis is often seen as an opportunity to boast about the many long hours spent or the litres of coffee needed to complete a work of some acceptable scientific value. And although I cannot deny that such conditions apply to the present report as well, the one thing that was most apparent, available and experienced during the writing of this thesis was joy. It simply was joyful to go to the bottom of literature on cultural landscapes and historic buildings and to design a survey which would be held under so many people. Joy too is what I encountered when talking to the experts I interviewed, as well as enthusiasm for the subject they had specialized in and the work they had accomplished. Last, but certainly not least, I also enjoyed discussing my research with my colleagues, supervisor, friends and family who were always there when I had questions or concerns about my progress. For this joy and enthusiasm, as well as all the information and help they offered, I want to thank all the people who participated in my survey and those who I have interviewed: Ms.

CT4460 Polders 2015.Pdf
Course CT4460 Polders April 2015 Dr. O.A.C. Hoes Professor N.C. van de Giesen Delft University of Technology Artikelnummer 06917300084 These lecture notes are part of the course entitled ‘Polders’ given in the academic year 2014-2015 by the Water Resources Section of the faculty of Civil Engineering, Delft University of Technology. These lecture notes may contain some mistakes. If you have any comments or suggestions that would improve a reprinted version, please send an email to [email protected]. When writing these notes, reference was made to the lecture notes ‘Polders’ by Prof. ir. J.L. Klein (1966) and ‘Polders and flood control’ by Prof. ir. R. Brouwer (1998), and to the books ‘Polders en Dijken’ by J. van de Kley and H.J. Zuidweg (1969), ‘Water management in Dutch polder areas’ by Prof. dr. ir. B. Schulz (1992), and ‘Man-made Lowlands’ by G.P. van der Ven (2003). Moreover, many figures, photos and tables collected over the years from different reports by various water boards have been included. For several of these it was impossible to track down the original sources. Therefore, the references for these figures are missing and we apologise for this. We hope that with these lecture notes we have succeeded in producing an orderly and accessible overview about the genesis and management of polders. These notes will not be discussed page by page during the lectures, but will form part of the examination.

Geschichte Von Noordoostpolder, Urk Und Schokland
Geschichte von Noordoostpolder, Urk und Schokland Gewinnung Neues Land In 1918 wurde inmitten eines Gewässers angelegt. Das größte geplante Einzelobjekt war der 32 Kilometer lange Abschlussdeich (Afsluitdijk), der als Schutz vor der Nordsee dienen sollte. Als dieser 1932 vollendet war, wurde die Zuiderzee vollständig abgetrennt und in IJsselmeer umbenannt. Die Insel Urk liegt nicht mehr in die Zuiderzee, aber in IJsselmeer. In 1936 wurde insgesamt 31,5 Kilometer Deich gebaut; von Lemmer bis Urk. Der Nordostpolder wurde im Jahre 1942 im Rahmen der Zuiderzeewerke trockengelegt und schließt sich im Osten an das ältere Festland an, im Westen liegt er am heutigen See IJsselmeer. Innerhalb des Polders befinden sich die ehemaligen Inseln Urk und Schokland. Das Hauptanliegen waren der Schutz vor der offenen See und die Gewinnung von wertvollem Landwirtschaftsland. Inrichtung des Nordostpolder Während der Besatzungszeit, bis 1945, fanden viele Untergetauchte halb-illegale Arbeit und Zuflucht, die niederländische Widerstandsbewegung hatte hier ihr Rückzugsgebiet. Der Beginn der Trockenlegung fiel zeitlich zusammen mit dem Zweiten Weltkrieg. Viele der Tausende Menschen, die hier arbeiteten (der Noordoostpolder wurde größtenteils von Hand kultiviert), waren aus noch einem guten Grund hier: Sie entkamen so dem Arbeitseinsatz in Deutschland. Wieder andere hatten noch einen besonderen Grund, um bei der Landgewinnung mit zu helfen: Sie hofften, dadurch ihre Aussichten auf einen Bauernhof oder auf einen festen Arbeitsplatz zu verbessern. Bei der Kolonisierung ging es keinesfalls um willkürliche Niederlassungen. Vielmehr wurden neu hinzukommende Bewohner/- innen sehr sorgfältig ausgewählt. Der eher dünn besiedelte Noordoostpolder ist wichtig für die hochwertige Land- und Gartenwirtschaft. Nach dem zweiten Weltkrieg wurden Stein und Maurer noch selten; und er machte, wenn zuerst der vorgefertigte Betonbauteile zu verwenden, zum Erstellen von Scheunen.

Off the Beaten Path
THE NETHERLANDS Off the Beaten Path April 3 – 15, 2022 Hosted by Henk Aay and Robert Hoeksema There is an old Dutch saying, “God created the earth, but the Dutch created the Netherlands.” Come see how, over time, the Dutch transformed their country. Today nearly 17% of the country is reclaimed land. Your hosts Henk and Bob will intertwine the rich history of water management as it connects with popular landmarks, sightseeing, and culture. The windmill is a prime example of this. Compare the UNESCO Heritage windmills of Kinderdijk with the modern Deltaworks. In Amsterdam cruise the Canal Ring and some lesser known, but fascinating sites such as Ons’ Lieve Heer op Solder (a hidden Roman Catholic house church). Elsewhere, visit Castle Amerongen, explore the Hoge Veluwe National Park along with its famous Kröller-Müller art museum, and explore the quaint city of Delft, where you will be given time to shop at the open-air markets. Most excursions will include opportunities to sample diverse Dutch cuisines. The evenings and free day can be spent shopping, visiting museums, and relaxing in the wonderful restaurants and pubs of Leiden and Zwolle, your two “home-bases.” This unique blend of history, culture, and charm is one tour you won’t want to miss. Space is limited, so register today! LED BY APRIL 2022 Highlights: Henk Aay and Robert (Bob) Hoeksema 03 SUNDAY Together, they have led Calvin student groups to the Netherlands • Roundtrip air Depart for more than 20 years. • Hotel accommodations Check in at Gerald R.
