Modeling highway runoff pollutant levels using a data driven model.
Pollutants accumulated on road pavement during dry periods are washed off the surface with runoff water during rainfall events, presenting a potentially hazardous non-point source of pollution. Estimation of pollutant loads in these runoff waters is required for developing mitigation and management strategies, yet the numerous factors involved and their complex interconnected influences make st...
متن کاملModeling pollutant release from a surface source during rainfall runoff.
Though runoff from manure spread fields is recognized as an important mode of nonpoint-source pollution, there are no models that mechanistically describe transport from a field-spread manure-type source. A mechanistic, physically based model for pollutant release from a surface source, such as field-spread manure, was hypothesized, laboratory tested, and field-applied. The primary objective of...
متن کاملRelationship between antecedent dry period and highway pollutant: conceptual models of buildup and removal processes.
This paper investigated the highway stormwater quality at two Texas cities-Austin and College Station. Two highways with high average daily traffic were monitored using passive stormwater samplers for collecting first-flush runoff during a 16-month period. Detailed traffic and weather data were collected at College Station sites, but only weather data were obtained at Austin sites. A stepwise r...
متن کاملDesign Tool for Controlling Runoff and Sediment from Highway Construction
Regulations require that stormwater pollution prevention plans be developed for construction activities that disturb an area that is equal to or greater than one acre. Different strategies, including a combination of practices, can be used to develop these plans. The WATER model was a tool developed from a previous project to assess the effectiveness of different on-site sediment control practi...
متن کاملAsphalt parking lot runoff nutrient quality: characterization and pollutant removal by bioretention cells
The objectives of this study were to characterize asphalt parking lot (APL) runoff quality, to determine influent factors to predict nutrient concentrations and loads from eight sites in North Carolina and to assess two grassed bioretention cell efficiencies to remove APL runoff pollutants. From the eight APL sites, event mean concentrations (EMCs) and loads were measured and statistically anal...
