ABSTRACT Long‐term drought and aridification challenge water managers in the southwestern United States to ensure water security for growing urban populations. As reliable supply dwindles, managers must increasingly rely on demand management strategies whose success is predicated on community water literacy, an aggregate of water knowledge, attitudes ...

ABSTRACT This paper presents a novel methodology for optimizing installation of low impact development practices (LIDs) in an urban hydrological catchment. This methodology helps stakeholders in deciding on what kind and area of LID must be installed in each sub‐catchment to attenuate pluvial flooding as a result of intense rain events.

Development of Next‐Generation Flood Inundation Maps: A Case Study in Kaohsiung City, Taiwan
ABSTRACT Flood inundation mapping has become a critical reference for flood risk management, particularly for determining insurance premiums and formulating mitigation strategies in rapidly urbanizing areas with high population density. With recent advancements in mapping technologies and high computing capacity, high‐resolution spatiotemporal datasets

Strategies to Encourage Adoption of Stormwater Pond Best Management Practices (BMPs) by Homeowners
Man-made ponds can be a useful way to collect, store, and treat stormwater runoff in residential areas. However, these ponds can become polluted when runoff contains fertilizers, pesticides, and pet waste from the neighborhood.
