Hydrological Controls of Methane Uptake in Biochar‐Amended Native Vegetation Green Roof Substrates
Four years of field measurements showed that biochar amendment consistently enhanced atmospheric methane (CH4) uptake in high‐organic native green roof substrates. Biochar‐mediated changes in substrate moisture and gas exchange strengthened CH4 consumption, demonstrating biochar‐amended green roofs as a nature‐based strategy for enhancing urban CH4 ...

Stormwater Infrastructure Decision-Making: on the Hurdles of Going Green
Stormwater runoff has been a major issue for urbanised areas. The traditional response to tackle stormwater flooding and pollution is to construct a network of well-connected drainage to direct the runoff outside the city boundaries.

Modeling Logical Interdependencies: Quantifying Systemic Risk From Rule‐Governed Actions
ABSTRACT Systemic risk in critical infrastructure is often analyzed through physical, geographic, and cyber interdependencies. Yet infrastructures are also interdependent through the governing rules that organize human action. These rule‐mediated connections are a form of logical interdependency, and breakdowns in rule‐governed action can create ...

Assessment of the Viability of a Natural Urban Wetland in the Treatment of Stormwater
Stormwater runoff generated from urban areas can be a source of contamination and may negatively impact receiving waters. Best management practices, including the use of treatment wetlands, are recommended to minimize impacts and maintain the quality ...

Microplastic Dynamics in Sediment Layers of Two Ramsar‐Designated Wetlands
ABSTRACT Little is known about the vertical and spatial dynamics of microplastics in relation to hydrology and land use, particularly in African context. This study aimed to assess the abundance, type, colour and vertical distribution of microplastics in sediment from two Ramsar‐designated wetlands, the Makuleke and Nylsvley. Sediment core samples were

The sustainability of conventional stormwater management systems has long been considered impractical. However, many cities around the world still use combined sewers to deal with both waste and stormwater.

Abstract Historical peatland drainage resulted in surface subsidence and reduced water storage capacity (WSC), a process that can be exacerbated by climate change. We assessed the effects of rewetting on WSC using mesocosm experiments in climate chambers, field measurements, and Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) analysis.
