SPRINGERBRIEFS IN WATER SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY ...

This book presents new findings on intrinsic variability in pollutant build-up and wash-off
processes by identifying the characteristics of underlying process mechanisms  based on the
behaviour of various-sized particles. The correlation between build-up and wash-off processes
is clearly defined using heavy metal pollutants as a case study. The outcome of this study is
an approach developed to quantitatively assess process uncertainty  which makes it possible to
mathematically incorporate the characteristics of variability in build-up and wash-off
processes into stormwater quality models. In addition  the approach can be used to quantify
process uncertainty as an integral aspect of stormwater quality predictions using common
uncertainty analysis techniques. The information produced using enhanced modelling tools will
promote more informed decision-making  and thereby help to improve urban stormwater quality.
