The outcomes of a series of mathematical simulations of pollutant build-up and wash-off are presented in this chapter, strengthening the knowledge base on process variability. It was found that the build-up of particles ...

Current practice in stormwater quality modelling constraints the generation of reliable information about catchment scale stormwater quality due to the lack of robust methods to assess the inherent uncertainty in pollutant ...

Increasing urbanization is a common phenomenon around the world, which results in the conversion of previously vegetated areas into impervious surfaces. Natural sources and anthropogenic activities common to urban areas ...

Urban waterways are vital for enhancing the well-being of an ever increasing population. Hence, effective solutions are necessary to mitigate pollution of these waterways. This research study investigated the influence of ...

The delineation of homogeneous regions is primarily based on long-term overall rainfall characteristics and therefore does not necessarily consider the homogeneity of event-based rainfall characteristics. However, event-based ...

The study identified that the integration of CCA in PAM in Indonesia requires the incorporation of nine key elements. These are as follows: recognition of climate change; risk management and insurance schemes for assets; ...

This book brings together the experiences of engineers and scientists from Australia and the United Kingdom providing the current status on the management of stormwater and flooding in urban areas and suggesting ways ...

Stormwater is the major non-point source to rivers. For example, it is estimated around 540 billion cubic meter of stormwater flows into Port Phillip Bay annually. Further, stormwater carries 14,000 tonnes of sediment, 650 ...

Metal pollution of stormwater runoff can cause potential toxic impacts on the receiving water environment and human health. Effective pollution mitigation requires accurate stormwater quality modeling. Even though a ...

Assessing the risk to human health posed by stormwater pollutants is critical, because stormwater is considered as an alternative water resource to mitigate water deficiencies, which is becoming increasingly common around ...
