Selecting a Green Roof Media to Minimize Pollutant Loadings in Roof Runoff
Low Impact Development, 2008Green roofs are a best management practice for urban areas where land for traditional stormwater practices is unavailable. The two primary research objectives are the following: (1) To develop an effective media for green roofs that will improve roof runoff quality while maintaining the known water retention benefits of green roofs, and (2) To ...

Copper Roof Stormwater Runoff - Corrosion and the Environment
CORROSION 2002, 2002Abstract A well defined watershed was utilized to determines copper concentration, speciation and aquatic toxicity in stormwater runoff. Stormwater runoff samples were collected during 16 storm events from a copper roof, and simultaneously at several other locations within the watershed, in order to better understand the sources and fate

[A review of green roof performance towards management of roof runoff].
Ying yong sheng tai xue bao = The journal of applied ecology, 2016Green roof has a significant influence on reducing runoff volume, delaying runoff-yielding time, reducing the peak flow and improving runoff quality. This paper addressed the related research around the world and concluded from several aspects, i.e., the definition of green roof of different types, the mechanism how green roof manages runoff quantity ...

[Distribution form of nutrients in roof runoff].
Huan jing ke xue= Huanjing kexue, 20096 rainfall-runoff events were examined from a concrete roof by a traffic artery in Shanghai to characterize the particle-bound and dissolved nutrients in roof runoff and to get more knowledge about roof runoff pollutants and lay the theoretic foundation for the selection of roof runoff purification method.

Roof maintenance impacts on roof runoff quality in France.
2011Roof maintenance practices require biocides to fight against moss, lichens and algae growth. The main component of these products, in France, is benzalkonium chloride. This paper describes, on the base of bench tests, how benzalkonium spread on roofs contaminates the collected runoff during the following rain events.

Roof Runoff Replenishment of Groundwater in Jinan, China
Journal of Hydrologic Engineering, 2015AbstractIn Jinan, China, which is named the Spring City of China, karst groundwater is an important water source for urban supply and maintaining spring flow. However, rapid urbanization in Jinan, China, has caused overexploitation of groundwater and an increase in surface runoff.
