Public preferences and willingness to pay for low impact development: a comparative case study of pilot sponge cities in China

Blue-Green Systems, 2023
Increased urbanization and climate change globally have increased the frequency of extreme weather, especially rainstorms and flooding. Low impact development (LID) has been adopted for several decades to reduce urban pluvial flooding and cope with urban

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,

Stochastic Analysis of the Drawdown Time of Infiltration Basins in the Presence of Heterogeneous Soils

Water Resources Research, 2023
The drawdown time is important for the design and assessment of infiltration basins. This paper investigates its dependence on soil heterogeneity, and simple analytical solutions for the mean and the variance are given.

A distributed SCS-CN model with revised effective precipitation

Shui kexue jinzhan, 2023
To solve the problem of the equation structure becoming more complex in the improved soil conservation service curve number (SCS-CN) model, a SCS-CN model with revised effective precipitation (SCS-CN-REP) is proposed by introducing a revised coefficient ...

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 ...

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,
