Book Synopsis Urban Drainage Modelling and Water Sensitive Urban Design by : T Fletcher
Download or read book Urban Drainage Modelling and Water Sensitive Urban Design written by T Fletcher and published by IWA Publishing. This book was released on 2007-02-15 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Urban water management is faced with the seemingly contradictory challenges of managing the impacts of excessive water in the form of flooding and environmental degradation from stormwater runoff, at the same time as addressing an increasing scarcity of water of sufficient quality to sustain humans and the environment. The 7th Urban Drainage Modelling and 4th Water Sensitive Urban Design conferences were held concurrently in Melbourne, Australia in April 2006. They brought together a diverse range of experts to share insights and perspectives on technical, environmental and socio-economical aspects of urban water management. A key highlight of the conference was the focus on integrated approaches, with perspectives from engineers, scientists, social scientists, planners and landscape architects contributing to solutions for urban drainage and water management. Assessment and consideration of uncertainty in models was a major theme to come out of the conference, as was the evolution of new technologies in water sensitive urban design, decision-support systems and real time control. Of the 285 abstracts submitted to the conference, 157 were accepted after a two-stage review. Only 30 of these papers were able to be accepted for publication in Water Science and Technology. Papers selected are those which report the best scientific or technological advances or insights into urban drainage modelling or water sensitive urban design. Together, they represent an authoritative summary of the current state of knowledge in urban drainage modelling and water sensitive urban design.

The conference was promoted and organized by the University of Palermo, Italy and the International Working Group on Data and Models, with the support of four of the world’s leading organizations in the water sector: the International Water Association (IWA), International Association for Hydro-Environment Engineering and Research (IAHR), Environmental & Water Resources Institute (EWRI) - ASCE, and the International Environmental Modelling and Software Society (iEMSs). The topics covered are highly diverse and include drainage and impact mitigation, water quality, rainfall in urban areas, urban hydrologic and hydraulic processes, tools, techniques and analysis in urban drainage modelling, modelling interactions and integrated systems, transport and sewer processes (incl. micropollutants and pathogens), and water management and climate change. The conference’s primary goal is to offer a forum for promoting discussions amongst scientists and professionals on the interrelationships between the entire water cycle, environment and society.
Book Synopsis Water Sensitive Urban Design by : Jacqueline Hoyer
Download or read book Water Sensitive Urban Design written by Jacqueline Hoyer and published by Jovis Verlag. This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During recent years, techniques and legislation for decentralized storm-water management have advanced all over the world. However, decentralized storm-water management systems are still under-utilized and acceptance among citizens and professionals is still lacking. Yet management of this issue will be essential for the sustainable development of cities in the future. Thus acceptance of the systems must be improved. The main question that needs to be answered is how can sustainable storm-water management be integrated with urban design in order to create safe, liveable, sustainable, and attractive cities? This manual, developed by the Hafen City University of Hamburg, provides an overview of a Water Sensitive Urban Design approach and creates principles for a successful strategy focused on the topics: Water Sensitivity, Aesthetics, Functionality, Usability, Public Perception and Acceptance, as well as Integrative Planning. It furthermore presents an international selection of case studies ranging from small scale (site level) up to large scale (city level), demonstrating the WSUD principles in the context of the temperate climates.

Book Synopsis Urban Stormwater by : Victorian Stormwater Committee,
Download or read book Urban Stormwater written by Victorian Stormwater Committee, and published by CSIRO PUBLISHING. This book was released on 1999-10-28 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The intense concentration of human activity in urban areas leads to changes in both the quantity and quality of runoff that eventually reaches our streams, lakes, wetlands, estuaries and coasts. The increasing use of impervious surfaces designed to provide smooth and direct pathways for stormwater run-off, has led to greater runoff volumes and flow velocities in urban waterways. Unmanaged, these changes in the quantity and quality of stormwater can result in considerable damage to the environment. Improved environmental performance is needed to ensure that the environmental values and beneficial uses of receiving waters are sustained or enhanced. Urban Stormwater - Best-Practice Environmental Management Guidelines resulted from a collaboration between State government agencies, local government and leading research institutions. The guidelines have been designed to meet the needs of people involved in the planning, design or management of urban land uses or stormwater drainage systems. They provide guidance in ten key areas: *Environmental performance objectives *Stormwater management planning *Land use planning *Water sensitive urban design *Construction site management *Business surveys *Education and awareness *Enforcement *Structural treatment measures *Flow management Engineers and planners within local government, along with consultants to the development industry, should find the guidelines especially useful. Government agencies should also find them helpful in assessing the performance of stormwater managers. While developed specifically for application in Victoria, Australia, the information will be of value to stormwater managers everywhere.
