“…Similar results for the influence of dry period were also reported by Kim et al [2006]. In their study, the net mass accumulation of total solids became nearly constant after 20 to 40 days.…”

“…[9] In previous studies, the pollutant deposition rate a and pollutant removal rate b were generally assumed to be constant [Behera et al, 2006;Kim et al, 2006]. However, many studies based on either wind tunnel experiments [Sehmel, 1971;Noll et al, 2001;McCready, 1986] or field sampling [Slinn and Slinn, 1980;Wu et al, 1992] have found that pollutant deposition and removal are significantly correlated with atmospheric parameters including wind speed, relative humidity, and antecedent dry days.…”

[1] An analytical runoff water quality model is developed for simulating polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) loading and transport via road runoff in an urban area. The model considers buildup and washoff processes of suspended solids in storm runoff and considers dissolved and particle-bound PAHs. Pollutant deposition and removal processes, which have typically been treated with a constant rate in previous models, are depicted as functions of relative humidity and wind speed to reflect the influence of meteorological conditions and are integrated into the pollutant buildup function. Pollutant input via rainwater and canopy throughfall from roadside trees is considered in the washoff model. The model is calibrated and verified with field data from an urban catchment in Beijing, China. The verification indicates that the runoff model is capable of providing results in good agreement with field measurements. A Monte Carlo framework is used to evaluate the uncertainty of PAH loading under various scenarios of atmospheric conditions.

“…In the subsequent events, input concentrations were noticeably lower, indicating that sediment on the roadway had already been washed off. The values monitored for the later events are compared with values reported for highways runoff by other authors [17]. Relationships BOD 5 /COD were relatively low for every sampling point with mean values of 0.15, 0.09 and 0.16 for points 11, 12 and 13 respectively, indicating the low biodegradability of organic matter present in the runoff.…”

"Don't go through life, grow through life" Eric ButterworthA regenerative urban stormwater management methodology. The role of SuDS construction and monitoring in the transition of a Mediterranean city. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTSI would like to dedicate this thesis to my husband, Iñaki, for his unconditional support, at home and abroad.I am grateful to my thesis directors, Dr. Joaquín Andreu and Dr. Ignacio Andrés, for their guidance throughout the process. My special thanks to the latter, for all the fun moments we have enjoyed in between the hard work.A special mention of professor Chris Jefferies, to whom I am thankful for the orientation he has provided all along my career, both at the academic and the professional levels. Thanks also to Dr. Sue Charlesworth, for all that I learned during my stay at Coventry University.A warm gratitude to Susan Dodson, for her friendship and the time she has dedicated to improving the English grammar of my publications.And a special thanks to my parents, Carmen and Antonio; to my "new" parents, Maria and Roberto; and to Amparo, for transmitting their energy and believing in me.Last, but not least, a special mention to my offspring Pablo and Ana, who are happily accompanying me in the last part of this project.A regenerative urban stormwater management methodology. The role of SuDS construction and monitoring in the transition of a Mediterranean city. ABSTRACTUnder the well-known slogan 'think global, act local', cities in the 21 st century face the enormous challenge of catalyzing, intensifying and accelerating sustainable urban transformations. Without losing a holistic view, the methodology presented in this thesis places the focus on 'resource management and climate mitigation and adaptation', in particular in urban stormwater management, proposing processes that can bring about the required change, shaped by the place-based approach of the regenerative sustainability paradigm.Building upon literature and practice that supports a flexible approach to stormwater management in urban environments that mimic natural processes and predevelopment hydrology (Sustainable Drainage Systems, SuDS) as one way to, amongst others, help to prevent and adapt to climate change, the thesis highlights the relevance of the connection to the place for adoption of best practices that conduct towards a regenerative system. Hence, it incorporates this connection to the place to the SuDS representation, naming it the SuDS 'landed rocket'.The proposed methodology includes a conceptual framework, specific method and tools, that allows for the understanding and the characterization of the current situation of a urban stormwater system in a process that guides future actions to move towards the desired regenerative urban built environment concept, with a place-based holistic view.This methodology has been applied to Benaguasil, a Mediterranean city, where stormwater ma...
