Stormwater Management Modelling for Ungauged Watershed in Matara Municipality

Operationalizing Scale in Watershed-based Stormwater Management

Watershed-based stormwater management (WSM) has been proposed as more effective for stormwater management than traditional methods of controlling stormwater, which are carried out based on jurisdictional lines at the parcel-scale. Because WSM considers the watershed as a total unit, this method is considered to be more effective in reducing problems associated with stormwater management includi...

Analysis of Urban Stormwater Best Management Practice Options for the St. Joseph River Watershed

Watershed management modelling in Malawi: application and technology transfer

59 To study the possible impact on the Lake Malawi/Nyasa/Niassa water quality due to actions performed at the watershed level, 61 and WL Delft Hydraulics to integrate physical and biochemical processes models in the lake and its basin which affect lake and 62 river water quality. The purpose of the integration of different models was to provide a set of tools in order to analyze the impact 63 o...

Role of Resilience in Sustainable Urban Stormwater Management

Typically, best management practices (BMPs) are implemented to help sustainable stormwater management in urban areas. Over recent decades the selection of urban stormwater management measures for a site has been a challenge among urban planners where thecriterion based on flood volume no longer suffices for selecting urban drainage solutions. Therefore there is a need to consider a set of holis...

Urban Stormwater Temperature Surges: A Central US Watershed Study

Impacts of urban land use can include increased stormwater runoff temperature (Tw) leading to receiving water quality impairment. There is therefore a need to target and mitigate sources of thermal pollution in urban areas. However, complex relationships between urban development, stormwater runoff and stream water heating processes are poorly understood. A nested-scale experimental watershed s...
