Multiple rainfall event pollution transport by Sustainable Drainage Systems: the fate of fine sediment pollution
(The University of Nottingham, 2016-12-01)
A key design criterion of sustainable urban drainage systems is to mitigate urban stormwater pollution. Current research defines sustainable urban drainage systems (SuDS) pollutant treatment efficiency through the detention ...
Evaluating the multiple benefits of a Newcastle SuDS scheme
(The University of Nottingham, 2017-05-12)
Sustainable Drainage Systems (SuDS) and Blue-Green infrastructure (BGI) provide a range of environmental, economic and social benefits in addition to managing water quantity and quality. Recognition of the multifunctionality ...
A spatial approach to evaluating the multiple benefits of Sustainable Drainage Systems using blue-green infrastructure
(University of Nottingham, 2017-05-31)
Traditional approaches to understanding the benefits of SuDs adopt cost-benefit analysis and ecosystem services methods often rely on value transfer to convert each benefit into a monetary value which can then be compared ...
Institutional stakeholder interviews (Portland, Oregon) on the uncertainties, concerns and challenges the limit implementation of Blue-Green infrastructure
(University of Nottingham, 2050-09-14)
This is a qualitative data collection. These data were collected as part of an interdisciplinary project undertaken by the Blue-Green Cities (B-GC) Research Consortium with the Portland-Vancouver ULTRA (Urban Long-term ...
The influence of floodplain restoration on sediment dynamics on an urban river
(University of Leeds, 2016-05-05)
Urbanisation affects both the volume and timing of sediment delivery in the catchment. This study presents influence of floodplain restoration on the sediment dynamics in the highly urbanised catchment, Johnson Creek, ...
Numerical modelling of hydro-morphological processes dominated by fine suspended sediment in a stormwater pond
(University of Leeds, 2017-11-08)
Fine sediment plays crucial and multiple roles in the hydrological, ecological and geomorphological functioning of river systems. This study employs a two-dimensional (2D) numerical model to track the hydro-morphological ...
The impacts of natural flood management and urban catchment composition on stormwater quality and in-channel sediment quality
(The University of Nottingham, 2016-10-11)
Natural Flood Management (NFM) techniques aim to reduce downstream flooding by storing and slowing the flow of stormwater to river channels. These techniques include a range of measures, including setback stormwater outfalls ...
Contamination of detained sediment in Sustainable Urban Drainage Systems
(The University of Nottingham / Heriot-Watt University, 2017-05-31)
Adsorption is a key water pollution remediation measure used to achieve stormwater quality improvement in Sustainable urban Drainage Systems (SuDS). The level of contamination of detained sediment within SuDS assets is not ...
The Blue-Green Path to Urban Flood Resilience
(The University of Nottingham, 2019-12-04)
Achieving urban flood resilience at local, regional and national levels requires a transformative change in planning, design and implementation of urban water systems. Flood risk, wastewater and stormwater management should ...
Raw data and analysis for paper 'Use of Surface Motion Characteristics Determined by InSAR to Assess Peatland Condition'
(University of Nottingham, 2019-12-20)
Raw and processed ISBAS DInSAR data for 22 sites across the Flow Country NE Scotland corresponding to the paper 'Use of Surface Motion Characteristics Determined by InSAR to Assess Peatland Condition'. Twenty-two study ...
