Urban Stormwater Monitoring: Urban water cycle at RecoveryPark
Detailed Description
Illustration showing the effect green infrastructure could have on the urban water cycle at RecoveryPark. Runoff and sewer flows will decrease; infiltration, evapotranspiration, and groundwater recharge will increase.

Assessing stormwater reduction through green infrastructure: RecoveryPark (Detroit, Mich.)
The effectiveness of green infrastructure (including urban land conversion and bioswales) at reducing stormwater runoff is being assessed at RecoveryPark, a redeveloped urban farm in Detroit, Michigan. This study will monitor pre- and post-construction storm-sewer flow, groundwater levels, precipitation, and potential evapotranspiration (ET) to evaluate stormwater-volume reduction in response to...
