1 Challenge the future The adaptive delta metropolis: Gradual adaptation or system interventions? Han Meyer, Bas Jonkman

2 Challenge the future Global background Rapid economic development in flood-prone areas Sea level rise and subsidence Frequent floods in developed and developing countries Recent Worldbank study on coastal flood risks (Hallegatte et al., 2013): Current Risks in coastal cities US$ 6 billion per year 2050: US $52 billion per year (!?) R. Waterman Maeslant barrier

3 Challenge the future Strategies for coastal regions Estuaries / bays: Dikes Dams Storm surge barrier Strategy / solution: Driven by societal needs Effects on various functions DIMI seminar April 10, 2015 “”next generation storm surge barriers”
