Therefore the dike was reinforced in 2015 with a soft, natural barrier of 30 million cubic metres of sand on the seaside of the dike. It was renamed &#8216;Hondsbossche Dunes&#8217;.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>The project represents a unique opportunity to study the development of nature on a large-scale sand nourishment. The design consists of a soft shallow foreshore (the beach), with various dune habitats. These connected systems make up the primary flood defence and provide the spatial quality required.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Hondsbossche Dunes - Knowledge development about a sandy reinforcement of the Dutch coast\" width=\"580\" height=\"326\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/bwSQTtx5dX0?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><figcaption><strong>Building with Nature &#8211; Hondsbossche Dunes<\/strong><br>What exactly is EcoShape researching at the Hondsbossche Dunes?

It also provides a clearer picture of realistic possibilities for the design, management and maintenance of these solutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Results<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The results of the research will provide new knowledge about where soft approaches deliver added value and possible financial benefits by comparison with hard solutions. \nIn conjunction with the research on the Sand Motor, this should result in a better fundamental understanding of sandy foreshores. We will also link the Hondsbossche monitoring programme to ongoing scientific research of reinforcement with sand, such as BE SAFE (NWO Building with Nature) and Nature Coast (STW Perspective).<\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"link-list-block_5edf7ca637ccd\" class=\"block-link-list-inner \">\n            <h2>Building with Nature Guideline<\/h2>\n    \n    \n                        <ul
