Low impact development and sustainable stormwater management[electronic resource]. - Hoboken :John Wiley & amp; Sons,2012. - 1 online resource (399 p.)

Cover; Title Page; Copyright; Chapter Prologue; Acknowledgments; Chapter 1: Rainwater as the Resource; 1.1 The Water Balance as a Guide for Sustainable Design; 1.2 The Water Balance by Region; 1.3 Arid Environments: The Southern California Model; 1.4 The Altered Water Balance and Hydrologic Impacts; 1.5 The Impacts of Development on the Hydrologic Cycle; The Historic Approach: Detention System Design; Stormwater Volume Methodologies; References; Chapter 2: Stormwater Hydrology and Quality; 2.1 Overland Flow: The Beginning of Runoff; 2.2 Regional Hydrology; 2.3 Stormwater Volume.

Sustainable Stormwater Management introduces engineers and designers to ideas and methods for managing stormwater in a more ecologically sustainable fashion. It provides detailed information on the design process, engineering details and calculations, and construction concerns. Concepts are illustrated with real-world examples, complete with photographs. This guide integrates the perspectives of landscape architects, planners, and scientists for a multi-disciplinary approach. This is an enlightening reference for professionals working in stormwater management, from engineers and designers to d.
