Selection of Low Impact Development Infrastructure Based on Precipitation Regimes and Land Uses in Mosquito Creek Watershed – LWS

Mcw from GuoweiLi5

Background

Current urbanization practices have resulted in an increase in impervious surfaces (surfaces allowing little or no water to pass through), which further influences water resource redistribution and runoff interception.

LID: What is it?

Low Impact Development (LID) refers to the decentralized design of stormwater management that reduces the risk of flooding by restoring the predevelopment hydrological characteristics and fully utilizing natural landscapes.
