On June 17^th, Anna Kroon, employee at Svašek Hydraulics, successfully defended her PhD, titled “Uncertainty in predictions of large-scale sandy interventions” at Delft University of Technology.

This study analyses uncertainties in predicting large-scale sandy interventions in the coastal zone. The results imply that uncertainty analysis cannot be limited to the consequences of            intrinsic factors only, because (epistemic) model uncertainty significantly contributes to uncertainties on relevant time scales (1-10 years).
