| Short description: |
The European DayWater project has developed a prototype of an Adaptive
Decision Support System (ADSS) related to urban stormwater pollution
source control. The DayWater ADSS greatly facilitates decision-making
for stormwater source control, which is currently impeded by the large
number of stakeholders involved and by the necessary multidisciplinary
knowledge.
This publication presents the results of this project, providing new insights
into both technical and management issues. The main objectives of its
technical chapters are pollution source control modelling, risk and impact
assessment, and evaluation and comparison of best management
practices. It also covers management aspects, such as the analysis of the
decision-making processes in stormwater source control, at a European
scale, and stormwater management strategies in general. The
combination of scientific-technical and socio-managerial knowledge, with
the strong cooperation of numerous end-users, reflects the innovative
character of this book which includes actual applications of the ADSS
prototype in significant case studies. DayWater: an Adaptive Decision
Support System for Urban Stormwater Management contains 26 chapters
collectively prepared by DayWater scientific partners and end-users
associated with this European Research and Development project.
