Assessing Potential Effects of Climate Change on Highway-Runoff Flows and Loads in Southern New England by Using Planning-Level Space-for-Time Analyses
Abstract:Transportation agencies need information about the potential effects of climate change on the volume, quality, and treatment of stormwater to mitigate potential effects of runoff on receiving waters. To address these concerns, the U.S. Geological Survey and the Federal Highway Administration used the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project tool and the Stochastic Empirical Loading and Dilution Model to perform space-for-time stormwater quality analyses. This study indicated that spatial variations in precipitati… Show more
