Literature ReviewOpen accessPhrase in the titleReview of Blue-Green Infrastructure in Some Selected CountriesTariku Neme Afata, Seyoum Derib, Reda NemoBlue-Green Infrastructures (BGI) integrate solutions implemented to enhance water management and landscape values for more climate-resilient and livable cities. It has created an opportunity to renew the natural structure of water balance in cities and rural through the increase in rainwater retention and enlargement of permeable areas. The objective of this review is to assess the blue-green infrastructures of selected … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 4 · 4 Aug 2022 · 7,096 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleImpacts of Large-Scale Stormwater Green Infrastructure Implementation and Climate Variability on Receiving Water Response in the Salt Lake City AreaChris York, Erfan Goharian, Steven J. BurianThis study evaluated impacts of Green Infrastructure (GI) as a stormwater management practice on return flows and the further Implications of climate variability. The goal was to create a model to explore the impacts that bioretention and Rainwater Harvesting (RWH) representing GI had using goldsim and Stormwater Management Modeling (SWMM) software. The software was used to represent impacts that climate … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 20 Oct 2015 · 9,269 accessesView PDFCite
