The pollution conveyed by urban runoff: A review of sources
Science of The Total Environment, 2020 Urban stormwater and snowmelt pollution contributes significantly to the deterioration of surface waters quality in many locations. Consequently, the sources of such pollution have been studied for the past 50 years, with the vehicular transportation sector and the atmospheric deposition identified early as the major pollution sources.

Surface runoff as a potential source of pollution
IOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2020 Abstract Due to the accelerated development of urbanized areas, the increase of paved and impermeable surfaces, permanent changes in the environment of the city occur. The spatial structure of the city is changing. There are creating significant artificial landscape elements that are not able to absorb rainwater. As a consequence of this

Study on purification effect of infiltration materials to pavement runoff pollution
E3S Web of Conferences, 2018 The concentrations of pollutants in pavement runoff are higher than those in other surface runoff normally, which causes serious problems in protecting the environment of receiving rivers and soils. According to the concept of low impact development (LID)
