Low impact development (LID) is a land development strategy for managing stormwater at
the source with decentralized micro-scale control measures. Since the emergence of LID …

This review interprets highway runoff characterization studies performed on different
continents. The results are synthesized to discuss the historical trends, first flush effects of …

Storm-water pollutants are widely recognized as a major cause of surface water quality
degradation. Most storm-water treatment efforts have focused on capture of particles and …

Stormwater runoff was monitored on 13 separate urban watersheds, which were chosen to
represent distinct types of residential and industrial development, along with various …

We review the evolution, state of the art and future lines of research on the sources, transport
pathways, and sinks of particulate trace elements in urban terrestrial environments to …

Highway stormwater runoff quality data were collected from throughout California during
2000–2003. Samples were analyzed for conventional pollutants (pH, conductivity, hardness …

Increases in urbanization have led to increased stormwater runoff and mobilization of
pollutants from urban watersheds. Discharge of these pollutants often leads to …

Permeable pavements have been widely regarded as an effective way to restore the
ecological functionality of urban road systems such as natural infiltration properties …

Many natural and anthropogenic factors cause degradation of urban stormwater quality,
resulting in negative consequences to receiving waters. In order to improve water quality …

Eight rainfall-runoff events were examined from each of two small paved urban
transportation land use watersheds (A= 544 m 2 and 300 m 2) in an attempt to distill multiple …
