Screening of representative rainfall event series for long-term hydrological performance evaluation of grassed swales

Evaluation of the hydrological performance of grassed swales usually needs long-term monitoring data. At present, suitable techniques for simulating the hydrological performance using limited monitoring data are not available. Therefore, current study aims to investigate the relationship between saturated hydraulic conductivity (K_s...

Time-varying characteristics of saturated hydraulic conductivity in grassed swales based on the ensemble Kalman filter algorithm: A case study of two long-running swales in Netherlands

Saturated hydraulic conductivity (K_s) of the filler layer in grassed swales are varying in the changing environment. In most of the hydrological models, K_s is assumed as constant or decrease with a clogging factor. However, the K_s measured on site cannot be the input of the hydrological model directly....

A comprehensive review on the long-term performance of stormwater biofiltration systems (SBS): Operational challenges and future directions

Stormwater biofiltration systems (SBS) are a popular technology for mitigating the negative effects of urbanization on the hydrological processes and water quality in urban areas. However, little is known about SBS's long-term performance in actual field conditions. The findings of a review of the scientific literature on the long-term...
