description abstract | Vegetation in a constructed storm water wetland (CSW) is essential for nutrient removal and thermal pollution reduction. However, a portion of the storage volume designed to retain the water quality event is occupied by vegetation, which may result in the CSW being undersized from a hydrologic perspective. The fraction of the volume associated with vegetation mass was unknown and designers have been unsure as to (1) how they should account for volume occupied by vegetation and (2) whether this was a significant design issue. Twelve storm water wetlands and one hybrid wet pond in North Carolina were sampled to assess their percent vegetative occupancy by volume. Vegetation was harvested from randomly selected | |
