anthropogenic alterations have affected urban hydrology in india and have generated a wide range of hydrological problems. such alterations include increase in directly-connected impervious cover thus reducing natural groundwater recharge. in the past urban runoff was largely viewed as a nuisance, but within the new paradigm of sustainability, this water is recognized as a potential resource. t...

Sustainable urban stormwater management (SUSM) is essential to sustainability. However, barriers adopting it are observed even in places where SUSM more widespread. Recent studies have evaluated strategies for overcoming some barriers. no study has systematically analyzed the available most common developing countries. Thus, this article aimed provide a literature review on these strategies. Ni...

Urban stormwater management is one of the key challenges concerning sustainability in urban areas. Sustainable (SUSM) has been increasingly adopted around world and proved its effectiveness enhancing quality life cities. Nevertheless, these strategies are yet to be widely developing countries. This paper presents barriers widespread adoption SUSM Brazil, as a country case study with severe prob...

In urban and suburban areas, stormwater runoff is a primary stressor on surface waters. Conventional urban stormwater drainage systems often route runoff directly to streams and rivers, thus exacerbating pollutant inputs and hydrologic disturbance, and resulting in the degradation of ecosystem structure and function. Decentralized stormwater management tools, such as low impact development (LID...

Climate changes, failure to complete the natural cycle of water in the city due to unsustainableconstruction of the urban environments and increase of impervious surfaces, lack of nutrition of undergroundaquifer in the cities, unsustainable management of stormwater and the floods due to them in the periods of rainfallcaused to provide an approach that is called water sensitive urban design.

this manuscript illustrates how the human resource management concept of employee empowerment likely has benefits in both developed and developing economies. studies in the hospitality sector and the manufacturing sector in canada, india, and turkey show that, in general, empowering supervisory behaviors, such as transformational leadership, increase feelings of psychological empowerment of emp...
