    3.1 Hard Coastal Defense

    Ecolas Marine Biology ANALYSIS Chapter 2: Infrastructure in the BPNS GAUFRE: Towards a spatial structure plan for the Belgian part of the North Sea Coastal defense Figure I.2.3b: Illustrative picture of the different beach zones. 3.1 HARD COASTAL DEFENSE ECOLAS Environmental Consultancy & Assistance Bart De Wachter & Annemie Volckaert 3.1.1 Description Along the Belgian coast no natural hard substrates (rocky shores) are found. In the framework of coastal defense several artificial hard substrates have been built. Their most important function is the protection of the hinterland (dikes, groynes), the harbour (piers, moles) or the safeguarding of the shipping (buoys). Furthermore they form a substrate on which specific rocky shore communities can settle. Along the Belgian coast four main types of hard substrates can be distinguished: groynes, dikes, moles and piers. Groynes, dikes and piers are directly exposed to waves, while moles (except the breakwaters of Zeebrugge) are found within the shelter of the harbour. In contrast to dikes that are orientated practically parallel with the wave activity, groynes are placed perpendicular to the waves. Besides, groynes are on base of their morphology differentiated in a rock-fill on the seaward side, a groyne top and two flanks, all subjected to a different hydrodynamic activity. Piers ‘escort’ all a harbour gully and consist of a complex construction of differently orientated balk- or pole-structures. These structures are made of wood or concrete. A further division within the different types can be made on the basis of the following characteristics: • The degree of exposure in relation to the waves.

    Zeno, the Latest Life Nature – Restoration – Project Along the Flemish Coast

    6th European Conference on Ecological Restoration Ghent, Belgium, 8-12/09/2008 ZENO, THE LATEST LIFE NATURE – RESTORATION – PROJECT ALONG THE FLEMISH COAST Dewulf E. 1, Van Nieuwenhuyse H. 1, Herrier J.-L. 1 and Lozie P. 1 1 Agency for Nature & Forests of the Flemish Ministry of Environment, Nature and Energy, West-Flanders Keywords: Restoration and management of Coastal Dunes and their transition to the Polders, NATURA 2000 habitat types: 2130 Fixed coastal dunes with herbaceous vegetation (‘grey dunes’), 2190 humid dune slacks. NATURA 2000 species: amphibians: Triturus cristatus, Hyla arborea, Epidalea calamita, birds : Egretta garzetta, Platalea leucorodia. Introduction In the federal state structure of Belgium the competence for environmental matters, including nature conservation, is bestowed to the Belgian federal authority in the territorial sea beneath the low water line and to the Flemish regional authority on land (including the tidal beaches) above the low water line. At the Flemish coast, several Natura 2000 sites have been delimited at sea as well as on land. In execution of the ‘European Birds Directive’ 49/709/EEC , 7 Special Protection Areas have been designated by different orders of the Flemish government (Map 1). In the framework of the ‘European Habitat Directive’ 92/43/EEC, already three Sites of Community Interest have been designated on land, and two areas in the Flemish territorial waters are recognised (Map 2). Map 1: Map of the Special Protection Areas in the Map 2: Map of the Special Areas for framework of the European Birds Directive 49/709/EEC Conservation in the framework of the Habitat at the Flemish coast Directive 92/438 EEC at the Flemish coast It is then obvious that ‘L’Instrument Financier Européen pour l’Environnement’, abbreviated as LIFE, more precisely LIFE nature, would play an important role as a tool for the practical implementation of the Natura 2000 – network at the Flemish coast.

  • The Low-Cost Puzzle for Long-Haul Trains

    The Low-Cost Puzzle for Long-Haul Trains

    Viewpoint The low-cost puzzle for long-haul trains Will we see low-cost carrier models in rail? Long-haul (high-speed) rail has been gaining popularity globally in recent years – especially in Western Europe and East Asia. Due to the growing popularity among travelers and branching out of incumbent operators, it is likely that we will see diversification of business models in the near future. The airline industry saw such diversification in the late 1990s. Here, low-cost-carrier models have been particularly successful. Recently, the low-cost movement has also started to transform the coach industry. Could rail be next? First indications are shown by operators launching low-cost carrier models in France and Belgium and an unconventional player entering the market in Germany. This article examines the current status quo and outlines the low-cost carrier model as it is known in the aviation industry, before inspecting current low-cost models and evaluating whether spread is likely. Status quo – Growing demand and rising popularity Differentiating long-haul (high-speed) rail systems – Special tracks, signaling systems and rolling stock With increasing mobility demand and evolving mobility needs, the transportation industry has drastically evolved from a single Although long-haul trains are not necessarily synonymous with point-A-point-B routing system to interconnected networks high speed, long-haul trains – at least for passenger travel – have encompassing road, rail and airways. Long-distance (cross- only gained their popularity status by significantly reducing travel regional) railway networks have especially flourished under times between urban destinations.

    Belgian Coastal Urban Environments: Reading Human Mobility Processes in a Spatial Framework

    CHAPTER III. Belgian Coastal Urban Environments: Reading Human Mobility Processes in a Spatial Framework Xuan Quynh LE Ahmed Z. KHAN Eric CORIJN X. Q uynh Le, A. Z. Khan, E. Corijn,Belgian Coastal Urban Environments 1. Introduction In this chapter, urbanization and mobility aspects of the two Belgian case studies are reviewed and analysed. They are the Brugge Study Area (SA) with 9 communes (4 in the Ring and 5 in the Core) and Oostende SA with 5 communes (2 in the Ring and 3 in the Core). The SAs are defined using criteria describing human mobility (migration and commuting) and urbanisation processes (describing the spatial extension of urban features and other related demographical characteristics). The two study areas lie next to each other in the coastal front of Belgium, occupying around a half of the total Belgian coastline. According to an official delineation of the Belgian Coastal Zone, most of these two study areas lie within the coastal zone. The main objective of this review is to identify urbanisation and human mobility patterns in the case studies based on their development trends in the last decade. In both case studies, it is presumed that urbanisation and human mobility have evolved hand in hand and together play a crucial role in shaping the transformations happening in their respective urban centres. By analysing functional urban regions through urbanisation processes and human mobility, it is hoped that different issues relating to those processes can be discerned. The intention behind discerning these issues is to facilitate the identification of conflicts that will be the focus of further work in the framework of the SECOA project.
