Extreme precipitation and flooding in Berlin under climate change and effects of selected grey and blue-green measures [PDF]

Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences
This paper aims to quantify potential changes in extreme precipitation under climate change scenarios in the city of Berlin, Germany, and their resulting impacts on urban flooding in a selected flood-prone area of the city.

The effect of combined sewer overflows on the abundance of antibiotic resistance genes and bacteria in the James River [PDF]

, 2017
Antibiotic resistance is a major threat to human health. Clinical situations are the main focus for antibiotic resistance research, but understanding the spread of resistance in the environment is also vital.

Assessing the Impact of Wastewater Flow Rates on SARS‐CoV‐2 RNA Detection: Insights for Environmental Surveillance and Policymaking

Environmental Quality Management, Volume 35, Issue 4, Summer 2026.
We meta‐analyzed 10 studies to assess whether influent flow rate affects SARS‐CoV‐2 RNA detection in wastewater treatment plants serving ≤60,000 inhabitants. The pooled odds ratio (2.08; 95% CI: 0.994–37; p = 0.053) showed no significant association between flow rate and detection probability.

Impact of short duration intense rainfall events on sanitary sewer network performance [PDF]

, 2017
Short duration intense rainfall causes an increase in rainfall derived infiltration and inflow (RDII) into aging sewer networks, which leads to Sanitary Sewer Overflows (SSOs).

A Qualitative Approach to Combined Sewer Overflow Modelling on the WATERVERSE Project

Engineering Proceedings
In the UK, combined sewer overflows (CSOs) are currently a hot topic, with the UK’s water regulator (OFWAT) mandating greater visibility and reporting on such incidents.

Optimizing LID Practices in the Genoa Urban Drainage System Based on the Community's Call for Action Through Participatory Mapping

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper presents a novel methodology for optimizing installation of low impact development practices (LIDs) in an urban hydrological catchment. This methodology helps stakeholders in deciding on what kind and area of LID must be installed in each sub‐catchment to attenuate pluvial flooding as a result of intense rain events.

Assessing the effects of four SUDS scenarios on combined sewer overflows in Oslo, Norway: evaluating the low-impact development module of the Mike Urban model

Hydrology Research, 2020
Paved surfaces, increased precipitation intensities in addition to limited capacity in the sewer systems, cause a higher risk of combined sewer overflows (CSOs).

Data Resolution and Model Complexity in Pluvial Flood Risk Assessment: Insights and Trade‐Offs

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The increasing severity and frequency of urban pluvial floods has prompted numerous research studies on pluvial flood risk assessment. However, the literature reveals significant variability in the data resolutions and model types employed.
