Bart Van Westen is an advisor-researcher and PhD candidate at TU Delft and Deltares with eight years of experience in numerical modelling of coastal systems and nature-based sandy solutions. He develops practical, scalable tools that connect process-based models to describe the full nearshore–beach–dune system and evaluates nourishment strategies across multiple spatiotemporal scales. At Deltares he bridges applied research and operational modelling workflows, and with the AeoLiS team he’s co-developing an innovative tool to better capture coastal dune evolution. His background ranges from hands-on MSc work on aeolian landforms to international field projects, reflecting a rare blend of numerical expertise and field-aware, implementation-focused thinking.
