This an overview of my publications on physical geographical subjects. My affiliation until 1998 was the Department of Physical Geography and Soil Science at the University of Amsterdam. Since 2000, research in Physical Geography is carried out in the Institute for Biodiversity and Ecosystem Dynamics (IBED). Since 2012, the bachelor study in Physical Geography is named Future Planet Studies and the master study Master in Earth Sciences.
I have published on the following subjects:
* Holocene geology of West-Friesland, the
Netherlands
* laboratory experiments on physical rock weathering
by salt action
* field measurements of erosion by raindrop impact
under forest in the Luxembourg Ardennes
* field observations of animal activity as a process
contributing to the movement of soil material on forested slopes in the
Luxembourg Ardennes
* research on the processes, phases and conditions
of formation of colluvium in the Luxembourg Ardennes
* soil erosion research in the Rif Mountains,
Morocco
* soil conservation research in South-Limbourg,
The Netherlands
* study of the impact of climate change on the
supply
of suspended sediment to the water courses of the river Rhine drainage
network (see: The
Rhine-NOP-II
Project Home Page ; Rijnproject,
Suspended

Researchers )
* history of geomorphology in the Netherlands
