Stormwater

Climate change and land use impacts on hydrologic processes of watershed systems
Combined change in land cover and climate are expected to cause 6% to 10% increase in average storm peak volume. A 7% increase in precipitation and 75% increase in EIA by 2100 are expected to increase average storm peak volume. Increasing peak flow information needs to be a part of town planning and infrastructure design for stormwater.
