Seasonal hydrological and water quality performance of individual and in-series stormwater infrastructures as treatment trains in cold climate

The performance of stormwater treatment trains and of their individual green infrastructures was evaluated near Montreal, Canada. Three treatment trains were studied: Train 1 – five bioretention cells in series with a wet retention pond; Train 2 – an infiltration trench in series with a dry detentio...
