Decision Criteria for the Development of Stormwater Management Systems in Poland

Resources, 2020
Progressing urbanisation is one of the key causes of environmental degradation. This problem also applies to stormwater management. For this reason, drainage infrastructures should be designed in harmony with nature and the decision for selecting a ...

Price Endogeneity and Marginal Cost Effects on Incentive Compatible Stormwater Management Policies [PDF]

Incentive based stormwater management policies offer the prospect of reducing urban stormwater runoff while increasing developer profits. An incentive compatible Stormwater Banking Program (SBP) is presented that allows developers to build at higher ...

Climate‐Modulated Particle Toxicity: Acute Exposure to an Environmentally Informed Microplastic Mixture Induces Sex‐Dependent Systemic Reorganization in Swiss Mice

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Microplastic (MP) pollution is widely recognized as an emerging environmental threat. Yet, most studies still rely on controlled experimental conditions that poorly reflect environmental complexity, potentially underestimating risks under realistic scenarios, particularly during short‐term exposures. Here, we tested whether acute oral exposure

Optimization of Physical Property of Constructed Wetland Using Simulation-Optimization Model (MUSIC-GA)

علوم آب و خاک, 2017
Nowadays, urbanization is a common process which replaces vegetation cover with impervious areas. This process increases urban stormwater. A new tendency in urban stormwater management endorses ‘source control’, whereby distributed water sensitive urban ...

Urban green spaces and flood disaster management: toward sustainable urban design

Frontiers in Public Health
This paper explores how rapid urbanization and frequent extreme rainfall affect urban flood risk, highlighting that stormwater management challenges worsen due to increased impervious surfaces, altered urban hydrological cycles, and damaged natural ...

Assessment of Metal Contamination and Human Health Risk in the Buffalo River Estuary, Eastern Cape, South Africa

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Metal contamination in estuarine environments poses environmental and public health concerns, particularly where surface waters support domestic and subsistence uses. This study assessed the seasonal distribution, controlling mechanisms, and non‐carcinogenic health risks of selected metals (Mg, Al, Ba, Fe, Mn, and Zn) in the Buffalo River ...

Future Scenarios Modeling of Urban Stormwater Management Response to Impacts of Climate Change and Urbanization

, 2017
Future scenario modeling was used to investigate the effectiveness of urban stormwater infrastructure and its response to potential future changes. The changes of urban stormwater, both in-flow quantity and water quality, in response to climate change ...

STRATIFIED ADAPTATION: Infrastructure, Elevation, and Cascading Floods in the Urban Mekong Delta

International Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Flood‐prone cities in the global South are increasingly the target of infrastructure projects aimed at building climate ‘resilience’. At the same time, residents of these cities take adaptation to flooding into their own hands. In this article we examine the interrelationship between household‐scale and urban‐scale flood mitigation projects in

Integrating Drone-Captured Sub-Catchment Topography with Multiphase CFD Modelling to Enhance Urban Stormwater Management

Engineering Proceedings
In this study, a drone-captured spatial data point cloud is used as input for creating a high-resolution modelling domain that accurately represents urban stormwater sub-catchments’ topography.
