Hydrologic Model Developed for Stormwater Infiltration Practices
Rain garden (RG) has been developed and applied to low-impact designs for the purpose of water quality enhancement. A RG consists of a surface storage basin and subsurface infiltrating layers. The storage basin is designed to be shallow, flat, and wide with an overtopping weir to pass excessive flows, while the subsurface infiltrating system is composed of two layers of filtering media. The upp...
متن کاملMeasuring solids concentration in stormwater runoff: comparison of analytical methods.
Stormwater suspended solids typically are quantified using one of two methods: aliquot/subsample analysis (total suspended solids [TSS]) or whole-sample analysis (suspended solids concentration [SSC]). Interproject comparisons are difficult because of inconsistencies in the methods and in their application. To address this concern, the suspended solids content has been measured using both metho...
متن کاملEffects of Stormwater Runoff from New Development
Most people know that urban runoff is a problem. Few understand just how harmful it can be for rivers and streams. To secure better watershed planning urban runoff control, we must first convince the public and its officials that they are needed. We need to show clearly and convincingly both the nature and the magnitude of the water quality and quantity problems that poorly planned and managed ...
متن کاملParcel Based Stormwater Runoff Calculator for Hamilton County Ohio
Complaints about stream and sewer flooding have been increasing. Many departments need to do accurate stormwater calculations but have lacked affordable and useful software tools. Hydrologists and engineers usually calculate stormwater data for watersheds (i.e., drainage areas); the majority of a local government’s work is based on individual parcels and addresses. Quantifying stormwater in a f...
متن کاملPeristaltic pump autosamplers for solids measurement in stormwater runoff.
Regulatory agencies approve automatic samplers containing peristaltic pumps as a sample collection method for stormwater characterization and for treatment-device evaluation. Autosampler performance, as discussed in the limited available literature, can vary across the entire particle size range typically found in stormwater from different source areas and outfalls-reasonably consistent perform...
