“…For permeable pavements and RHS, however, representative CNs that could be used in a predictive manner have not been well developed. A few studies developed distributed models to simulate RHS using linear routing and simple reservoir calculations (Vaes and Berlamont, 2001; Gilroy and McCuen, 2009; Kim and Yoo, 2009). Sample and Heaney (2006) used a lumped approach to simulate an RHS and calibrated an SCS CN model of a watershed with rainwater harvesting based on observed data by adjusting CN values and the time of concentration.…”

Damodaram, Chandana, Marcio H. Giacomoni, C. Prakash Khedun, Hillary Holmes, Andrea Ryan, William Saour, and Emily M. Zechman, 2010. Simulation of Combined Best Management Practices and Low Impact Development for Sustainable Stormwater Management. Journal of the American Water Resources Association (JAWRA) 1‐12. DOI: 10.1111/j.1752‐1688.2010.00462.x Abstract: Urbanization causes increased stormwater runoff volumes, leading to erosion, flooding, and the degradation of instream ecosystem health. Although Best Management Practices (BMPs) are used widely as a means for controlling flood runoff events, Low Impact Development (LID) options have been proposed as an alternative approach to better mimic the natural flow regime by using decentralized designs to control stormwater runoff at the source, rather than at a centralized location in the watershed. For highly urbanized areas, LID practices such as rainwater harvesting, green roofs, and permeable pavements can be used to retrofit existing infrastructure and reduce runoff volumes and peak flows. This paper describes a modeling approach to incorporate these LID practices in an existing hydrologic model to estimate the effects of LID choices on streamflow. The modeling approach has been applied to a watershed located on the campus of Texas A&M University in College Station, Texas, to predict the stormwater reductions resulting from retrofitting existing infrastructure with LID technologies. Results demonstrate that use of these LID practices yield significant stormwater control for small events and less control for flood events. A combined BMP‐LID approach is tested for runoff control for both flood and frequent rainfall events.

“…Previous research on RWH performance has also been conducted in China, Iran, and Jordan, where, again, the predominant climates are arid or semiarid (Abdulla and Al‐Shareef, ; Zhang et al ., ; Tabatabaee and Han, ). In these regions the majority of annual rainfall occurs during a “wet season.” Studies have also been carried out in Taiwan, Korea, Bangladesh, and China, where the amount and temporal distribution of rainfall are dominated by monsoons (Kim and Yoo, ; Islam et al ., , b; Zhou et al ., ). This also results in highly variable precipitation patterns characterized by distinctive wet and dry seasons.…”

Rainwater harvesting (RWH) has traditionally been implemented in areas with (semi) arid climates or limited access to potable water supplies; however, recent droughts in the humid southeastern United States have led to increased implementation of RWH systems. The objectives of this study were twofold: (1) present usage characteristics and performance results for four RWH systems installed in humid North Carolina (NC) as compared with systems located in arid/semiarid regions and (2) identify system benefits and modifications that could help improve the performance of RWH systems installed in humid regions of the world. For this study four RWH systems were installed in NC. Their usage was monitored for at least one year and compared with similar studies. Results revealed that dedicated water uses and usage characteristics for RWH systems in NC differed from those previously reported in the literature. Two of the systems studied met 100 and 61% of the potable water demand with designated uses of animal kennel flushing and greenhouse irrigation, respectively. The designated uses yielding the greatest potable water replacement were often seasonal or periodic, thus necessitating the need for identifying and implementing secondary objectives for these systems, namely, stormwater management. Otherwise, the expense and effort required to implement RWH systems in humid areas will most likely preclude their use.
