TL;DR: In this article, the authors present the results of a climate change impact study on urban stormwater runoff in the Bronx River watershed, New York City, and investigate the potential for low-impact development (LID) controls to mitigate the impacts.

TL;DR: A critical review of quantitative approaches to measure the resilience of water infrastructure systems, with a focus on water resources and distribution systems shows that resilience measures have generally paid less attention to cascading damage to interrelated systems, rapid identification of failure, physical damage of system components, and time variation of resilience.

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of climate change on urban storm water runoff in the Bronx River watershed in New York City were studied using 134 general circulation models (GCMs) from the fifth phase of the coupled model intercomparison project (CMIP5) for a future time period of 2030-2059.

TL;DR: An approach that lowers the barrier to web app development in the environmental domain by addressing each hurdle is introduced and an open source implementation, a development and hosting environment for environmental web apps called Tethys Platform is presented.

TL;DR: In this paper, a simulation-optimization framework is proposed to find the optimal design of low impact developments (LIDs) under climate change, which is applied to the Velenjak watershed.
