Recognizing that urbanization increases and accelerates runoff, reduces infiltration, and deteriorates water quality, the author proposes stormwater runoff as a resource that can be conserved for reuse. He suggests the reuse of stormwater runoff in general, and rainwater from roofs in particular, as a cost-effective means of achieving long-term sustainability. In addition, the book explores green infrastructure as the future of stormwater management and introduces techniques that can help reduce the thermal impacts of stormwater management practices.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eProvides an updated presentation of urbanization's impact on stormwater.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ePresents further analysis of the universal runoff model and the application of this model to non-uniform rainfalls.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eOffers a more detailed presentation of stormwater management systems, especially bio-filtration basins.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIncludes a comparative analysis of the effectiveness and costs of best management practices (BMPs).\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eContains an in-depth discussion of the means of collecting stormwater, such as roof rain for outdoor and certain indoor uses.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"CRC Press","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47592928379031,"sku":"9781032606729","price":11028.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781032606729.webp?v=1774979913","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/urban-stormwater-management-9781032606729","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
