(mentor) Aarninkhof, S.G.J. (graduation committee) Zijlema, M. (graduation committee) Lashley, Christopher H.

Field data is used to validate both a Delft 3D and SWAN standalone model. The paper not only shows the difference between the implicit manning roughness approach and the explicit cylindrical vegetation approach, but also provides a comparison between different drag coefficients as well as dissipation rates for Spartina Alterniflora under storm conditions.
