Evaluating low impact development practices potentials for increasing flood resilience and stormwater reuse through lab-controlled bioretention systems

Low impact development practices (LID) as alternative measures of urban drainage can be used within the approach of resources recycling and co-management. This study evaluates the potential contribution of a bioretention system to flood control, non-potable water demands (NPD) and resources co-manag...
