TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe the development and testing of an integrated one-dimensional model of flow through the porous storage of a typical stormwater infiltration system and surrounding soils, which combines a soil-moisture-based solution of Richard's equation for unsaturated flow with piston flow through saturated zone as well as a reservoir equation for flow through a porous storage.

TL;DR: It was suggested that the tested models poorly represent reality and result in a high level of uncertainty, which provides useful information for the improvement of existing models and insights for the development of new model formulations.

TL;DR: In this article, a feasibility study was conducted to examine options to reduce the area of impervious surfaces that are directly connected to waterways and a large-scale experiment was proposed to test this new approach to urban stream restoration.

TL;DR: It was shown that particle-bound pollutants as TSS and a high fraction of phosphorus were reduced well without being negatively influenced by cold temperatures; Nitrogen, however, was not reduced; especially NO(x) was produced in the columns.

TL;DR: Very good nutrient removal could be achieved by incorporating vegetation, an SZ and Skye sand, a naturally occurring iron-rich filter medium, which maintained nutrient removal at or below water quality guideline concentrations throughout the experiment, demonstrating resilience to wetting-drying fluctuations.
