| A Drone as Platform for Airborne Gamma-Ray Surveys to Characterize Soil and Monitor Contaminations. 2018 Eage extended abstract Medusa.pdf | Drone-borne surveying with spectrometers - case studies | 2018 |
| In situ radiometric mapping as a proxy of sediment contamination: Assessment of the underlying geochemical and -physical principles. 2007 In situ radiometric mapping as a proxy of sediment contamination Assessment of the underlying geochemical and physical principles.PDF | Paper describing the geochemical principles that make the sediment contamination can be mapped by using a gamma-ray spectrometer. | 2007 |
| Mapping Sediment Contamination with a Gamma-Ray Spectrometer, Underwater and on Land. Eage near surface 2019.pdf | This paper proposes a method that provide rapid, spatially detailed data on contaminant distributions and concentrations in sediments by using a gamma-ray spectrometer. A gamma-ray spectrometer can be used for mapping aquatic sediments (by using a vessel as platform) and non-aquatic sediments as floodplains by using a quad-bike or drone as platform for the sensors. | 2019 |
| Data fusion for inland dredging. Hydro international Nov08 Eemskanaal.pdf | Paper on the use of our MS-700 gamma-ray multisensor system applied to environmental mapping of Dutch canals suffering from heavy metal pollution Paper published in Hydro, nov 2008 | 2008 |
| An Underwater Gamma Spectrometer as Tool for Ecological Assessment. 2016 An Underwater Gamma Spectrometer as Tool for Ecological Assessment.pdf | Increasingly stringent ecological regulations asks for environmental impact asessments of fine sediment discharge from dredging. This paper outlines a novel approach utilizing an underwater gamma spectrometer to quantitatively map fine sediment concentrations, thereby enabling the monitoring of the seafloor's natural buffering capacity and the quantification of dynamic processes like re-suspension and large-scale sediment transport. | 2016 |
| Zinc slags in roads. 2011_paper_nicole_award_-_from_geophysical_measurement_towards_quantitative_riskassessment.pdf ME Whitepaper_ Zinc slag in roads.pdf | Paper describes a radiometry-based method to map zinc slags that are used in roads in a large area in The Netherlands and in Belgium. The slags leach heavy metals and therefore needed to be found back and remediated Result of a collaboration with Fugro | 2009 |
