The severity and frequency of short-duration, but damaging, urban area floods have
increased in recent years across the world. Alteration to the urban micro-climate due to …

Bioretention systems are widely used green infrastructure elements that utilize engineered
bioretention soil media (BSM) for stormwater capture and treatment. Conventional …

Understanding the drivers behind urban floods is critical for reducing its devastating impacts
to human and society. This study investigates the impacts of recent urban development on …

Numerous studies have investigated future changes in extreme precipitation by employing
climate models. However, trends in extreme short-duration (20–180 min) rainfall intensities …

Global changes, including climate and land use changes, can result in significant impact to
water resources. Planning for these changes requires making projections, even in the face …

Though urban areas represent a small fraction of global land cover, they have an outsized
impact on hydrological processes. Within these areas, the pathways that water follows are …

The generalised sea level and temperature rise, along with the increasing frequency and
intensity of storms and temperature extremes, trigger a variety of climate-change-related …

Urban drainage systems are generally designed based on the analysis of historical
hydrologic variables, especially rainfall. Hydrologic analysis, however, has been shown to …

Future scenarios modeling has been conducted to investigate the effectiveness of urban
stormwater infrastructure and to cater to potential future changes. The changes of quantity …

Sewer systems are an essential part of sanitation infrastructure for protecting human and
