Conservation Subdivision: Construction Phase—Low Impact Development (LID) and Stormwater Treatment

open access: yesEDIS, 2012
Because so much area in subdivisions is covered by impervious surfaces such as roads, buildings, and driveways, stormwater runoff must be accounted for and treated to prevent flooding and to remove contaminates.

Markov and Neural Network Models for Prediction of Structural Deterioration of Stormwater Pipe Assets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Storm-water pipe networks in Australia are designed to convey water from rainfall and surface runoff. They do not transport sewerage. Their structural deterioration is progressive with aging and will eventually cause pipe collapse with consequences of ...

INTEGRATING URBAN LAND USE PLANNING WITH FOOD SYSTEMS IN AUSTRALIA: Policy Integration Challenges and Opportunities

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Integrating urban land use policies with food systems is becoming a widespread global strategy to build resilient socio‐ecological systems and address the challenges of climate change and rapid urbanization. Yet varying degrees of integration have raised questions about its efficacy and hindered broader adoption.
