In this study, we investigated the relationship between watershed characteristics and hydrology using high spatial resolution impervious surface area (ISA), hydrologic simulations and spatial ...
UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. — At a time when many municipalities are seeking to control urban stormwater by investing heavily in green infrastructure — such as water-quality ponds, infiltration basins, ...
A study models the impacts of city infrastructures on the environmental quality of rivers and streams. Cities are hubs of not only sociopolitical power and economic production, but also land ...
“We can read the topography to determine elevation changes and whether the land is urban, agricultural, forest or rangeland, and whether the soil is clayey, like Houston Black, or sandy and the pH ...
