Evaluating the Effectiveness of Bioretention Cells for Urban Stormwater Management: A Systematic Review

Bioretention cells (BRCs) are a promising low-impact development (LID) practice that commonly used in urban settings to improve the water quality and mitigate hydrological effects of stormwater runoff. BRCs have been subject extensive research order better comprehend their function effectiveness. However, BRC performance differs greatly among regions terms hydrologic enhancement. Due this variance effectiveness, current study conducted comprehensive systematic review answer question, “Are an effective LID method for catchment management?”. This analyzed effectiveness mitigating impacts enhancing runoff catchments. A 114 field, laboratory, modeling studies on found may be one most successful approaches restore hydrology cycle quality. With further BRCs, quantity will become more reliable, helping develop long-term solutions drainage issues. At end review, knowledge gaps future prospects presented. In addition providing foundational grasp BRC, outlines key design recommendations implementation address issues raised by certain errors.
