New Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 60, Issue 4, December 2026.Estuarine ecosystems are experiencing increasing land‐derived stress, bringing sediments, excess nutrients and contaminants. Once degraded, disturbed soft sediment ecosystems can take years to recover because long‐lived, functionally important species that aid recovery are lost.

Stormwater management and ecosystem services: a review
Environmental Research Letters, 2018 Researchers and water managers have turned to green stormwater infrastructure, such as bioswales, retention basins, wetlands, rain gardens, and urban green spaces to reduce flooding, augment surface water supplies, recharge groundwater, and improve water

Targets for Urban Stormwater Management in Australia
WaterIncreasing urbanisation is occurring in Australia’s major cities and in almost every country in the world. This creates a challenge for the urban water sector, which not only needs to provide traditional water services (i.e., wastewater, domestic water) for a rapidly growing population, but also to service potential additional demands to contribute to ...

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 4, December 2026.ABSTRACT Urbanisation, climate uncertainty, and limited city budgets have heightened the need for efficient urban drainage management. While advanced hydrodynamic models assess the performance of drainage networks, they are computationally intensive, time‐consuming, and expensive.

Towards sustainable urban stormwater management
Water Supply, 2004 New directives for the management of urban stormwater prioritize infiltration and direct discharge into receiving waters. This requires innovative new stormwater facilities in urban areas. Besides hydraulic requirements for retention and infiltration capacity, the pollutants contained in the runoff water are of primary importance in future stormwater ...

Floods Early Warning Messages in a Rural Province in South Africa
Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 4, December 2026.ABSTRACT Floods remain among the most frequent and damaging natural hazards globally, with effective flood early warning messages (FEWMs) playing a critical role in reducing disaster risk and enhancing community preparedness. Despite advances in early warning systems, many rural communities in developing countries continue to experience challenges in ...

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 4, December 2026.ABSTRACT The increasing frequency of extreme flood events in recent years has posed substantial challenges to the emergency evacuation capacity of urban areas. Existing evacuation plans are largely based on rational assumptions, overlooking the complex decision‐making mechanisms through which residents simultaneously weigh multiple attributes in real ...
