Maarten Kleinhans

Professor at Utrecht University specialised in water, sand and plants. Rivers, deltas and coastal areas are dynamic landscapes, consisting of sand, mud and (dead) vegetation. These aspects combine in colourful and variable patterns and form landscapes that are important to the communities that live there. Our research group looks into these phenomena, using – among other things – experiments and computer models. In other words, we like to play in the sandbox and with computer games.
