Abstract

SimDelta dynamically simulates the geomorphology of the ‘Dutch Delta’ at a mega time scale. Scientifically a success, the model has scope for development as a game. Through challenging game play policy makers, spatial planners and students learn about the dilemmas posed by short and long term benefits and risks of embankment and urban development in relation to uncertain sea level developments
