| Zusammenfassung |
| This paper reviews the possible
functions as well as strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats for
robust flood defenses in the rural riverine areas of the Netherlands on the
basis of the recent literature and case studies at five locations in the
Netherlands where dike reinforcement is planned. For each of the case studies
semi-structured interviews with experts and stakeholders were conducted. At
each of the five locations, suitable robust flood defenses could be
identified that would contribute to the envisaged functions and ambitions for
the respective areas. Primary strengths of a robust, multifunctional dike in
comparison to a traditional dike appeared to be the more efficient space use
due to the combination of different functions, a longer-term focus and
greater safety. |
