Estimating Total Suspended Matter in Low to Extremely High Level Turbid River Surface Waters using a WISP-3 Hyperspectral Radiometer and Sentinel-2 Optical Imagery: A case study conducted on the Brantas River Basin, East-Java, Indonesia
No full textThis research focuses on using Sentinel-2 optical imagery to provide a means of high-resolution monitoring and evaluation of changes in Total Suspended Matter (TSM) concentration in the Brantas river basin. In situ spectral measurements as well as laboratory results show an extremely turbid nature of the Brantas River surface water. Current monitoring of the river water quality, is done by point measurements representing point estimations of the water quality in time and pace. Interactions within the system are mostly unknown. Having accurate knowledge of near real time water quality information will greatly enhance the effectiveness of the monitoring organizations, especially if this comes in a highspatial and temporal resolution. The Sentinel- 2 remote sensing platform delivers information which can be used to derive such data with a 10m resolution and revisit time of 5 days. To estimate TSM concentrations a multi-conditional algorithm is developed. It uses linear regression for low to mediumTSM concentrations based on the green and red band reflectance values and polynomial regression for high to extremely high TSM concentrations based on the red edge NIR band. Testing the multi-conditional algorithm on the WISP-3 in situ spectral data shows the model’s performance is good with r2 = 0.79, RMSE= 66.5 mg/L and NRMSE = 9.7%. Performance of the multi-conditional algorithm is found to be poor when based on Sentinel-2 (S2) bottom of atmosphere data from bands green, red and red edge NIR. However, when recalibrating the polynomial model on Sentinel-2 atmospherically uncorrected top of atmospheredata, results are more promising: r2 = 0.75, RMSE = 64.2 mg/L and NRMSE = 11.3% . Also, TSM estimates from remote sensing reflectances atmospherically corrected by different processors are compared, from which ACOLITE (RMSE = 5.0 mg/L, NRMSE = 25.3%) performs significantly better than C2RCC (RMSE =11.3 mg/L, NRMSE = 57.5%) and Sen2Cor (RMSE = 42.8 mg/L, NRMSE = 217%). This study shows that 1) high-resolution spatial and temporal variation of TSM concentration estimation can be made visible within the Brantas river basin, 2) an overview of TSM concentration estimation of the entire basin at onemoment in time can be achieved and visualised, 3) an extensive historical record of TSM concentration estimations can be accessed, and 4) information is provided to prioritize sampling locations and field surveying times.Fostering inclusive growth, health and equity by mainstreaming water quality in River Basin Management in the Brantas River Basin, Indonesi
Bouwlogistieke innovaties weerbarstig te implementeren
No full textToelevering van bouwmaterialen aan bouwprojecten is complex en verregaande gesegregeerd. De bouwsector staat voor een kans te innoveren op het vlak van de bouwlogistiek. In het verleden is ervaring opgedaan met ‘best-practices’ die voldoende kansen bieden de noodzakelijk innovatie door te voeren. Via proeftuinen wordt in het TKI-project ‘4C in Bouwlogistiek’ gewerkt aan het implementeren van de ‘best-practices’: bouwlogistiek hubs, bouwtickets, vandaag voor morgen, opstelstrips en mobiele voorraadcontainers. Ervaring leert dat cultuurverschillen tussen bouwkundigen en logistici, en gebrek aan meten en vastleggen van gegevens de implementatie bemoeilijken. Echte innovatie gaat mogelijk komen van bedrijven die logistiek geheel anders gaan doen. Voorbeelden van concepten die voor innovatie in bouwlogistiek kunnen zorgen zijn te vinden bij: IKEA, Toyota, Zara, Uber. Ook 3Dprinting gaat de bouwlogistiek sterk beïnvloeden.Engineering, Systems and ServicesTechnology, Policy and Managemen

Discussion of “Perceptual models of uncertainty for socio-hydrological systems: a flood risk change example”<sup> <sup>*</sup> </sup>
No full textDealing with uncertainty is key in socio-hydrological analysis. As such, thinking through what uncertainties mean for whom and when is key. This discussion contribution introduces three issues related to defining uncertainties. The first issue deals with the problem of defining uncertainty as a given external reality. The second issue deals with who decides about relevant uncertainties. The third issue deals with the issue whether coupled human-hydrological systems can be seen as existing on their own. Finally, the text provides two examples of hydrological research that try to be explicit about our dealing with multiple (interpretations of) realities.Green Open Access added to TU Delft Institutional Repository ‘You share, we take care!’ – Taverne project https://www.openaccess.nl/en/you-share-we-take-care Otherwise as indicated in the copyright section: the publisher is the copyright holder of this work and the author uses the Dutch legislation to make this work public.Water Resource
