Building the Blue Economy: Opportunities for Community-Based Organizations in Stormwater Management [PDF]

, 2016
The United States has a serious problem with combined sewer overflows. In responding to this environmental and public health menace, many regions are using innovative “green infrastructure” or “blue economy” approaches in addition to traditional “gray ...

Advancing Wastewater Treatment via Next‐Generation CFD: A Critical Review of Multiphase Physics, Scale‐Up Challenges, and AI Integration

Water Environment Research, Volume 98, Issue 5, May 2026.
CFD integrated with AI provides a next‐generation framework for optimizing aeration systems in wastewater treatment plants, improving oxygen transfer, addressing scale‐up limitations, and enabling energy‐efficient, low‐carbon operation. ABSTRACT Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) are facing dual pressures of increasing influent variability and the ...

The Untapped Hydropower Potential of World's Cities

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Many large cities around the world experience frequent power outages and yet have an abundance of tall buildings and experience rainfall. This represents a unique and scalable opportunity for cities to capture the intermittent rainwater at high elevation and convert the potential energy into electricity for rechargeable batteries at street ...

From Hydraulic Heads to Dollars and Decision: It's Time to Integrate Groundwater in Coastal Risk Assessment

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Sea level rise presents a range of hazards, including rising groundwater tables, salinization, and subsurface flooding, which threaten subsurface infrastructure in coastal communities. Groundwater shoaling inundates basements, tunnels, and utility networks, and mobilizes contaminants, while salinization accelerates corrosion and deteriorates ...

An Integrated Modeling Framework for Sediment Dynamics During Urban Flooding: Application to Hurricane Harvey in Houston

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Floodwater can mobilize and redistribute large volumes of sediment from upland to downstream urban areas, threatening infrastructure, water quality, and ecosystem health. However, existing modeling approaches often fail to capture sediment dynamics in urban floodplains due to the lack of integration between upland hydrological processes and ...

A Novel Approach Using Multiple Fluorescence Signals and Storm Event Clustering to Identify Riverine Dissolved Organic Matter Source Activation Pathways

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Despite the potential of multipeak in situ fluorescence to provide better insight into solute transport pathways, most high frequency studies have focused on a single fluorescence peak (e.g., humic‐like fluorescence [HLF]). To address this gap, we analyzed two years of 15‐min fluorescence data for HLF and tryptophan‐like fluorescence (TLF ...
