Over het archief
Het OWA, het open archief van het Waterbouwkundig Laboratorium heeft tot doel alle vrij toegankelijke onderzoeksresultaten van dit instituut in digitale vorm aan te bieden. Op die manier wil het de zichtbaarheid, verspreiding en gebruik van deze onderzoeksresultaten, alsook de wetenschappelijke communicatie maximaal bevorderen.
Dit archief wordt uitgebouwd en beheerd volgens de principes van de Open Access Movement, en het daaruit ontstane Open Archives Initiative.

| Abstract |
The Mangrove Management Group is an informally organized and open collaboration between various scientists of the Vrije Universiteit Brussel (VUB), intending to combine their diverse fields of expertise (chemistry, botany, zoology, socio-economy, remote sensing) as applied to the mangrove ecosystem in its widest sense. It is expected and it was experienced that this diverse input is scientifically very enriching for all partners and that it allows to tackle a wider range of problems. Though there is a general interest in fundamental questions (and answers), the Mangrove Management Group is very much aware of the fact that research into this complex ecosystem can rarely or never take place without taking into account its vital role for human society, particularly for people relying directly on mangrove resources. It is also realized that this is more commonly the case for developing countries. It is a principle that wherever and whenever possible scientists or other people who can contribute from the host country be involved and/or receive feedback about results. |
