Johan Chistian Winterwerp

Dr. Winterwerp is expert on morphodynamics and sediment transport and Senior Specialist on cohesive sediment transport. He is participating in and responsible for basic research and consultancy on sediment transport and morphological development in estuarine and coastal environments. He has executed many hydrodynamic, hydro-thermal and hydro-morphological studies all over the world as project leader and as expert in multi-disciplinary project teams, using the various mathematical models developed by WL | Delft Hydraulics. Amongst these are sediment transport studies for the navigational channels of Rotterdam, The Netherlands; of Antwerp in the Scheldt estuary, Belgium/Netherlands; of Cochin, India; for Neva Bay, St. Petersburg, Russia; for the Segara Anakan Lagoon, Java, Indonesia; for the Yangtze estuary and the Yellow River, China; for the Humber estuary, UK; for the Loire estuary, France; and for the Atchafalaya estuary, USA. For many years, a major part of the work of Dr. Winterwerp is dedicated to basic research into the behavior and properties of cohesive sediments and the application of the results to estuarine studies. A part of this research is carried out during his part-time affiliation as associate professor with Delft University of Technology. He is the author / co-author of more than 120 publications in Scientific Journals and Reference Books and contributed to many International Conferences.
