“…The LID increases not only the time to peak, but also the volume of detention water serving as a distributed water supply system. Li et al [18] developed an integrated water resources model for a community, but assumed that the surface runoff of the community was totally drained out of the system and thus did not consider it. The surface runoff was considered as a water resource in this study.…”

“…The surface runoff was considered as a water resource in this study. The purpose of this study is to build upon the previous work [18] by developing a community water supply model that explicitly incorporates the water supply potential from LID modules. SWMM is applied to simulate surface runoff and is integrated with the community water supply model.…”

Adaptation measures are necessary for reducing the impacts of extreme climatic events, especially at the community scale. Constructed wetlands and rainwater harvesting systems are commonly used as on-site water supply systems for distributed adaptation. The purpose of this study is to build a community water supply model and to evaluate the performance of low impact development (LID) modules as water supply facilities. The community water supply model simulates four water balances, namely, household storage, the constructed wetland, the rainwater harvesting system, and paddy fields. Three performance indicators are utilized, namely, the water saving efficiency, tolerance duration, and water use efficiency. The results show that the rainwater harvesting system saves up to 25.8% of the total domestic water demand, and the constructed wetland saves up to 40% of the irrigation water demand in Xingshi Village, located in northern Taiwan. In conclusion, the constructed wetland and rainwater harvesting system are good candidates for on-site water supply systems at the community scale. However, constructing a community water supply system requires more study, including a climate change risk assessment and the optimization of adaptation measures.
