Extensive hydrologic and water quality modeling within a watershed benefits from long-term flow and nutrient data sets for appropriate model calibration and validation. However, due to a lack of local water quality data, simpler water quality modelin...
Coupled with climate change, the urbanization-driven increase in the frequency and intensity of floods can be seen in both developing and developed countries, and Malaysia is no exemption. As part of flood hazard mitigation, this study aimed to simul...
Personal Computer Stormwater Management Model (PCSWMM) was applied to investigate: (1) hydrological responses in the Myponga catchment as a result of land use changes; and (2) the possibility of adopting Water Sensitive Urban Design (WSUD) technologi...
This study aims to monitor the flash flood response of Vidor/Wadore hill torrent in Pakistan by the integration of Personal Computer Storm Water Management Model PCSWMM (hydrologic) and HEC-RAS 5.x (hydraulic) models. The method leverages remote sens...
Bioswales are commonly constructed along roadways to control stormwater runoff. Many factors can affect the performance of a bioswale such as the size of the bioswale and its associated drainage area, rainfall characteristics, site conditions, soil p...
Rapid peri-urban sprawl is intensifying flood risk by replacing natural landscapes with dense, impervious residential developments. Thailand’s land use regulations require a 5% minimum green space allocation for new housing developments as a me...
Floods are amongst the most destructive and costly natural disasters impacting communities around the globe. The severity and reoccurrence of flooding events have been more common in recent years as a result of the changing climate and urbanization....
Land use and land cover (LULC) change is one of the primary contributors to hydrological change in urban watersheds and can potentially influence stream flow and flood volume. Understanding the impacts of LULC change on urban hydrological processes i...
Building information modeling (BIM) has been used by the architectural and engineering disciplines to streamline the building design, construction, and management process, but there has been much more limited experience in extending the application t...
Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) is a key indicator of organic pollution and a proxy indicator reflecting organic loading that can indirectly influence eutrophication processes in aquatic systems. This study presents a spatially explicit, physically b...
The impacts of land use on stormwater runoff quality and Best Management Practices to mitigate these impacts have been investigated since the 1970s, yet challenges remain in providing a modeling approach that concomitantly considers contributions fro...
This study evaluated the applicability of the dual drainage model, Hyper Connected–Solution for Urban Flood (HC-SURF), for real-time urban flood forecasting. The model was applied to the extreme rainfall event of August 2022 in the Sillim and D...
Low impact development (LID) is a storm management philosophy. This paper aims at choosing the LID for urban storm management by comparing the efficiency in the south urban district in the Taiyuan Basin. Firstly, we set up a 1D–2D model to simu...
While atmospheric warming intensifies the global water cycle, regionalised effects of climate change on water loss, irrigation supply, and food security are highly variable. Here, we elucidate the impacts of the climate crisis on irrigation water ava...
Rapid suburbanization can alter catchment flow regime and increase stormwater runoff, posing threats to sensitive ecosystems. Applications of Nature-based Solutions (NbS) have increasingly been adopted as part of integrated water management efforts t...
Rapid population growth and urbanization are transforming natural landscapes into built environments, resulting in increased stormwater runoff, which poses significant challenges for local governments to manage. Water-Sensitive Urban Design (WSUD) te...
Engineered wetland has been used as a Best Management Practice (BMP) to remove pollutants and maintain water quality in watersheds. This study is focused on developing models to analyze the impacts of discharges on the efficiency of wetlands to impro...
De-icing road salt application as a part of winter road maintenance is a standard practice with over 60 billion kilograms applied to roads worldwide each winter to ensure traffic safety. However, high concentrations of chlorides in melted ice and sno...
Timely generation of accurate and reliable forecasts of flash flood events is of paramount importance for flood early warning systems in urban areas. Although physically based models are able to provide realistic reproductions of fast-developing inun...
Green stormwater infrastructure (GSI) is increasingly used to reduce stormwater input to the subsurface stormwater network. This work investigated how GSI interacts with surface runoff and stormwater structures to affect the spatial extent and distri...
Configuring urban hydrological models, such as the Storm Water Management Model (SWMM), for operational use remains onerous for many modellers. We propose aiswmm, a SWMM-specialized agentic runtime, together with an Agentic SWMM workflow that embeds...
Urban flooding represents a growing concern on a global scale, particularly in regions characterized by rapid urbanization and increased climate variability. This study concentrates on the Rangsit area in Pathum Thani Province, Thailand, an urbanizin...
Climate change is elevating temperatures, shifting weather patterns, and increasing frequency and severity of extreme weather events. Despite the urgency with which solutions are needed, relatively few studies comprehensively investigate the effectiv...
This study evaluated the allocation of residential detention tanks in the Alto da Boa Vista Condominium, Federal District, Brazil, using hydrological and hydraulic modeling using the PCSWMM software (version 7.6.3610). The objective was to investigat...

The public health risk caused by urban floods is a global concern. Flood risks are amplified by the interaction of rainfall and storm tides in coastal cities. In this study, we investigate the flood risks of rainfall and storm tides coupling statisti...
In urban areas of Thailand, and especially in Bangkok, recent flash floods have caused severe damage and prompted a renewed focus to manage their impacts. The development of a real-time warning system could provide timely information to initiate floo...
