Statistical evaluation of bioretention system for hydrologic performance
Long-term retention performance is a common performance indicator for low-impact development practices, such as rain barrels, rain gardens, and green roofs. This paper introduces a numerical approach for the estimation of annual retention ratios of stormwater by bioretention.

Nutrient leaching and copper speciation in compost-amended bioretention systems [PDF]
Bioretention systems are designed to remove contaminants from stormwater; however, studies have shown that bioretention systems can export excess nitrogen, phosphorus, and copper when amended with compost. The objectives of this study were (1) to quantify removal of nitrates, phosphorus, copper, and dissolved organic matter (DOM) from compost-amended ...

The Common Approaches of Nitrogen Removal in Bioretention System [PDF]
Bioretention is considered one of the best management practices (BMPS) for managing stormwater quality and quantity. The bioretention system has proven good performance in removing total suspended solids, oil, and heavy metals. The nitrogen (N) removal efficiency of the bioretention system is insufficient, however, due to the complex forms of nitrogen.

Design and Performance Characterization of Roadside Bioretention Systems [PDF]
In the current study, three roadside bioretention systems with different configurations were constructed to investigate their pollutant removal efficiency in different rainfall recurrence intervals. The bioretention systems (referred as units) (unit A: 700 mm height material without submerged zone; unit B: 400 mm height material with 300 mm submerged ...

Plant Traits for Phytoremediation in the Tropics
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.

Impedance properties of biomass in support of practical mensuration in rain gardens
Impedance microbiology was explored to provide insights into how a sensor that can monitor the growth of bacteria in vegetated bioretention systems (rain gardens) may be designed for in situ, real-time use.
