- Title
Green infrastructure stormwater management at the watershed scale: urban variable source area and watershed capacitance.
- Authors
Miles, Brian; Band, Lawrence E.
- Abstract
The authors discuss the impact of impervious land surfaces such as sidewalks, roads, and parking lots on degree of hydrologic change. Authors mention indicators of urban stream's ecological disturbance that linked with total percent imperviousness (TI) including decreased water quality, loss of habitat, and benthic macroinvertebrate abundance. They features the implementation of stormwater retrofits by water resources managers and land use planners for stormwater management practices.
