|Summary=Study the effectiveness of emergency measures to prevent dike breaching under critical high water levels

|Summary=In the Netherlands the dikes are monitored continuously to prevent the hinterland from flooding. When the situation becomes critical (because of high water levels or storms) this becomes even more intense and every possible failure needs to be reported. If a dike, in this situation, is endangered, immediate actions need to be taken. Due to climate change this is expected in the riverine area, the IJsselmeer area and in the South-Western delta. Within a few hours (temporary) emergency measures are taken to prevent the dike from breaching, which would result in flooding of the hinterland. These measures are for example inflatable tubes, boxbarriers or the regular sandbags that are placed on top of the dike. The sandbags have proven to be a good strategy. The other measures are newly introduced and more or less only used in a test situation. The fact that they are only used in test situations gives some doubts about the reliability. It is important to study the effectiveness of emergency measures to prevent dike breaching under critical high water levels.
