Stormwater mitigation efficiency of bioretention systems relies for a large part on their
capacity to infiltrate rapidly received runoff. Within this context, the primary aim of this …

The main aim of the blue-green city concept is the reduction of the adverse impacts of
stormwater by recreating the natural water cycle with the aid of green infrastructure in major …

Catchment urbanization perturbs the water and sediment budgets of streams, degrades
stream health and function, and causes a constellation of flow, water quality, and ecological …

Urban drainage is a topic of increasing interest due to its key role for managing water-
related disasters, which are being exacerbated by the effects of Climate Change and …

Green stormwater infrastructure (GI) is gaining traction as a viable complement to traditional
“gray” infrastructure in cities across the United States. As cities struggle with decisions to …

Abstract Blue-green infrastructure (BGI), combining semi-natural and engineered elements,
