Sustainability Performance of Bioretention Systems with Various Designs

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Management, 2023
Bioretention systems for urban drainage are one type of blue-green infrastructure that have gained more attention in recent decades. There are numerous design options for these systems, including various construction components, filter material mixtures, and plants. However, the research focus on the impacts of these many design options has mainly been
