Rainwater harvesting is an ancient practice currently used for flood and drought risk
mitigation. It is a well-known solution with different levels of advanced technology associated …

Urban stormwater is known to cause a myriad of problems, ranging from flooding to water
quality degradations. This paper provides an extensive review of analytical probabilistic …

Green roofs can be an effective tool for sustainable urban drainage, since they reduce and
retain runoff by delaying its peak. Most studies analysing the retention capacity of green …

One of the most current and urgent challenges is making cities sustainable and resilient to
climate change. From this perspective, Nature-Based Solutions (NBSs) are well-recognized …

Green roofs are effective tools for stormwater control in highly urbanized areas since they
allow the reduction of peak runoffs and volumes discharged in sewer systems. Their design …

Encouraging the implementation of non-conventional water resources (NCWR) is a
fundamental strategy to face the future challenges due to urban population growth and …

Abstract Sustainable Urban Drainage Systems (SUDS) include strategies and solutions for
distributed stormwater management and control. They are strongly encouraged, especially …

Storage tanks from rainwater harvesting systems (RWHs) are designed to provide flow
equalization between rainfall and water demand. The minimum storage capacity required to …

Rainwater harvesting (RWH) systems are an effective low impact development practice that
provides both water supply and runoff reduction benefits. A stochastic modelling approach is …

The soil cover of urban areas drastically reduces infiltration rates and increases the risk of
stormwater flooding. In this context, nature-based solutions (NBS) are well-acknowledged …
