Abstract: Protecting and improving water resources play an important role for meeting the future demand for drinking water and preventing flood events. Increasing population tends to cause a shift from rural to urban areas, which ...

Abstract: Urbanization and population growth result in an increase of insufficient groundwater recharge. In order to overcome the adverse effects of urbanization, low impact development (LID) best management practices (BMPs) are ...

Abstract: High urbanization adversely affects the hydrological behavior of watersheds. Therefore, different stormwater management strategies have been put forward to mitigate these negative effects. Grass swales are one of the ...

Abstract: Flood wave propagation is the unifying concept in representing open channel and overland flow. Therefore, understanding flood wave routing theory and solving the governing equations accurately is an important issue in ...

Abstract: A diffusion wave equation, which is derived from the Saint-Venant equations for one-dimensional, gradually varied, unsteady open-channel flow, describes the wave propagation in open channels. Therefore, it is important to ...

Abstract: Flooding causes serious loss of life and property, especially in highly urbanized regions. The driving mechanisms of flooding should be investigated in detail and permanent precautions should be taken. One of the latest ...
