In the case of the interval between [10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20] mm, the smallest average found was 16% (Katowice and Koszalin), while a highest equal to 25% found in three cities: Gdańsk, Poznań and Toruń.

“…To increase the readability of the table, statistically significant changes ( ≥ 95%), changes close to statistical significance ( from 90 to 95%) and tendencies to change ( from 75 to 90%) are highlighted blue (increasing) and yellow (decreasing). There is evidence of statistically significant upward trends for Gorzów Wielkopolski ( [30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40] It is worth noting that for Poznań the amount of 20-day rainfall sums in the ranges [0-10) mm (CLI = 68%) and [10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20] mm (CLI = 91%) decreased, while there was no increase in the ranges [20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30] mm and [30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40] mm.

“…The use of rainwater for replacing the tap water for indoor and outdoor demands reduces pressure on water supply systems and water intakes [17]. On a large scale, RWH reduces the energy demand employed for raw water intake, pumping and treatment in water supply systems; and it also relieves sewage systems and reduces the risk of local floods, as it favours local rainfall retention [18][19][20]. These are attractive features for water supply and wastewater management systems operators.…”

Rainwater harvesting (RWH) for domestic uses is widely regarded as an economic and ecological solution in water conservation and storm management programs. This paper aims at evaluating long-term trends in 20-day cumulative rainfall periods per year in Poland, for assessing its impact on the design and operation conditions for RWH systems and resource availability. The time-series employed corresponds to a set of 50-year long time-series of rainfall (from 1970 to 2019) recorded at 19 synoptic meteorological stations scattered across Poland, one of the European countries with the lowest water availability index. The methods employed for assessing trends were the Mann–Kendall test (M–K) and the Sen’s slope estimator. Most of the datasets exhibit stationary behaviour during the 50-year long period, however, statistically significant downward trends were detected for precipitations in Wrocław and Opole. The findings of this study are valuable assets for integrated water management and sustainable planning in Poland.

“…They also proposed rainwater control in the Perdido River area of Florida, USA using green infrastructure and rainwater harvesting technology. Rainwater discharges in all study areas have been reduced by more than 20% [5].Mora-Melia Daniel, Lopez-Aburto Carlos S, Ballesteros-Perez Pablo et al, using the Rainwater Control Model (SWMM) software for hydrological modeling, considered rainfall runoff in different spatial regions, using different areas of green roofs controlling rainfall runoff; this method provided a useful solution to combat flooding in the Chilean region [6]. Yazdi, J proposed an elastic-based repair method for improving urban drainage systems and applied it to the Rainwater Drainage System (TSDS) in western Tehran, which integrates a multi-objective evolutionary algorithm (MOEA) and an EPA-SWMM simulation model; this was done to find cost-effective recovery measures during structural failures of key elements in the network [7].…”

A rainwater control optimization design approach for airports based on a self-organizing feature map neural network model

et al. 2020

To address the problems of high overflow rate of pipe network inspection well and low drainage efficiency, a rainwater control optimization design approach based on a self-organizing feature map neural network model (SOFM) was proposed in this paper. These problems are caused by low precision parameter design in various rainwater control measures such as the diameter of the rainwater pipe network and the green roof area ratio. This system is to be combined with the newly built rainwater pipe control optimization design project of China International Airport in Daxing District of Beijing, China. Through the optimization adjustment of the pipe network parameters such as the diameter of the rainwater pipe network, the slope of the pipeline, and the green infrastructure (GI) parameters such as the sinking green area and the green roof area, reasonable control of airport rainfall and the construction of sustainable drainage systems can be achieved. This research indicates that compared with the result of the drainage design under the initial value of the parameter, the green roof model and the conceptual model of the mesoscale sustainable drainage system, in the case of a hundred-year torrential rainstorm, the overflow rate of pipe network inspection wells has reduced by 36% to 67.5%, the efficiency of drainage has increased by 26.3% to 61.7%, which achieves the requirements for reasonable control of airport rainwater and building a sponge airport and a sustainable drainage system.

This review summarizes over 280 studies published in 2019 related to the characterization, control, and management of urban stormwater runoff. A summary of quantity and quality concerns is provided in the first section of the review, serving as the foundation for the following sections which focus on the control and treatment of stormwater runoff. Finally, the impact of stormwater control devices at the watershed scale is discussed. Each section provides a self-contained overview of the 2019 literature, common themes, and future work. Several themes emerged from the 2019 literature including exploration of substrate amendments for improved water quality effluent from stormwater controls, the continued study of the role of vegetation in green infrastructure practices, and a call to action for the development of new models which generate reliable, computationally efficient results under the physical, chemical, biological, and social complexity of stormwater management. © 2020 Water Environment Federation • Practitioner points • Over 280 studies were published in 2019 related to the characterization, control, and treatment of urban stormwater. • Studies on bioretention and general stormwater characteristics represented the two most common subtopics in 2019. • Trends in 2019 included novel substrate amendments, studies on the role of vegetation, and advancements in computational models.
