Urbanization has been found to impact stormwater runoff quantity and quality. A study catchment with mixed land use, residential and industrial were investigated and the water quality discharged from the catchment were sampled and tested for four basic water quality parameters; BOD5, NH3-N, NO3-N and P. One dry weather flow and several stormwater runoff were sampled. Results were compared to th...
The use of infiltration trenches has proven to be useful to reduce runoff in urban surfaces. The design of these structures is based on the continuity equation taking into account inflow, outflow and detention water volumes. Basic procedures evaluate entering flow rates and relative volumes directly as a function of rain event characteristics, without taking into account rain-runoff processes o...
Roofs are the first candidates for rainwater harvesting in urban areas. This research integrates quantitative and qualitative data of rooftop stormwater runoff in an urban Mediterranean-weather environment. The objective of this paper is to provide criteria for the roof selection in order to maximise the availability and quality of rainwater. Four roofs have been selected and monitored over a p...
New approaches to urban runoff management seek to reduce the volume and discharge of rainfall peaks as well as the amount of pollutants in urban areas to a level that is reminiscent of rainfall runoff in the decades before urban development. SWMM software is one of the best models to help in this field and it can be used to study the effects of using water harvesting methods on the volume of ru...
background: increased impervious surfaces in urban areas not only increase runoff volume and peak flow, but also worsen urban storm water pollution. the polluted runoff has many adverse impacts on human life and environment. the purpose of this study was to investigate and compare the efficiency of sand columns coated with nanoparticles of iron oxide in the presence and absence of a magnetic fi...
As stormwater flows are intermittent, the requirement to store urban runoff is important to the design of a stormwater re-use scheme. In many urban areas, the space available to provide storage is limited and thus the need to optimise the storage volume becomes critical. This paper will discuss the advantages and disadvantages of two different approaches of providing storage: 1) a single storag...
Urbanization is a pervasive global trend. The development of residential areas and road network in Hajighoshan watershed (northern Iran) has been observed in the recent several decades. The objective of this study is the quantitative investigation of the effects of impervious surfaces development and urban development on runoff generation and flood hazard. The study of urban area development wa...
Environmental flow assessment frameworks have begun to consider changes to flow regimes resulting from land-use change. Urban stormwater runoff, which degrades streams through altered volume, pattern and quality of flow, presents a problem that challenges dominant approaches to stormwater and water resource management, and to environmental flow assessment. We used evidence of ecological respons...
Recent monitoring shows that the majority of urban streams in the United States are contaminated by pesticide residues, and the contamination is mainly due to runoff from residential landscapes. In this study we evaluated the effect of landscape planting on persistence of the herbicides 2,4-D and dicamba in soil under laboratory conditions. The herbicides exhibited substantially different persi...
Thorough understanding of the rainfall-runoff processes that influence watershed hydrological response is important and can be incorporated into the planning and management of watershed resources. Soft computing techniques and inferential statistics were used to assess 2 rainfall-runoff models and their runoff predictive accuracy in this article. The 1954 simplified SCS runoff model was found t...
