Modelling the effect of rainfall patterns on the runoff control performance of permeable pavements
Water Science and Technology, 2021 With the implementation of low impact development (LID) in urban areas, it is necessary to quantify the actual effectiveness of LID facilities. In this study, a coupled hydrology-hydrodynamic numerical model was utilized to investigate the runoff control

Low Impact Development construction of peak cluster depression based on regulation of epikarst zone
Carsologica Sinica, 2022 Most of the bare karst areas environments with the widest distribution in southern China have peak cluster depression landforms. With high incidence of many environmental problems such as rocky desertification, flood, water shortage, and water pollution,

Life Cycle Environmental Impact of Underground Plastic Recharge Chambers in Stormwater Management
Buildings, 2022 Life cycle assessment is used to systematically evaluate the environmental impact of underground plastic recharge chambers (RCs) used for stormwater management. Using cradle-to-gate life cycle assessment and a functional unit of 1 m3 stormwater capacity,

Evaluating the hydrologic and water quality performance of novel infiltrating wet retention ponds
Blue-Green Systems, 2020 Wet retention ponds temporarily store and slowly release stormwater to mitigate peak flow rates and remove particulate-bound pollutants. However, with sandy underlying soils, wet retention ponds may provide additional benefits through infiltration ...

Hydrologic and soil properties of mature bioretention cells in Ontario, Canada
Water Science and Technology, 2021 Bioretention systems, which mimic natural hydrology and reduce volume of stormwater runoff, are a preferred solution for meeting water balance objectives, but lack of knowledge about the long-term performance of these systems hinders their wider adoption.
