A Complete Water Balance of a Constructed Stormwater Wetland
Water Resources Research, Volume 61, Issue 7, July 2025.Abstract Constructed wetlands are often overlooked as a stormwater management system in the urban context. In comparison to alternatives (e.g., green roofs, bioretention, bioinfiltration), constructed wetlands have a much larger space requirement, which comes at a cost and can be challenging to allocate.

Plant Traits for Phytoremediation in the Tropics
Engineering, 2019 Water is a limited and valuable resource. Singapore has four national sources of water supply, one of which is natural precipitation. Pollutants collected in stormwater runoff are deposited into drainage systems and reservoirs.

Mechanisms of woodchip-pyrite bioretention systems for nitrogen removal and N₂O emission control
Water Research XBioretention, as one of the flexible and economical green infrastructures, is widely used for urban stormwater management. Current modified strategies for bioretention have largely focused on improving nitrogen removal efficiency, while studies ...

Special Issue: landscape urbanism and green infrastructure [PDF]
, 2019 With the notion of landscape urbanism long neglected, interlinkages between ecology and architecture in the built environment are becoming visible. Yet, the diversity in understandings of the interconnections between cities and nature is the starting ...

Soil Science Society of America Journal, Volume 89, Issue 3, May/June 2025.Abstract Standardization of particle size analysis (PSA) is crucial to ensure the proper blending of stormwater filter media such as bioretention soil media (BSM). BSM typically contains >80% sand and is amended with organic matter and fines (silt and clay) to support pollutant removal.

Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 18, Issue 5, May 2025.The bacterial genus Massilia thrives in extreme habitats such as deserts, permafrost, and post‐fire soils. It degrades complex pollutants and collaborates with mycorrhizal fungi to degrade hydrocarbons. The ability of some members of the genus Massilia to produce specific secondary metabolites and biopolymers positions it as a potential candidate for ...
