The Impact Of Projected Climate Change On Bioswales In North Texas, Joann Paris Leavell Dec 2016

The Impact Of Projected Climate Change On Bioswales In North Texas, Joann Paris Leavell

Landscape Architecture Masters & Design Theses

This research addresses how bioswales are affected by the projections for climate change in the North Texas region. Bioswales are a type of green infrastructure that conveys stormwater before directing it to a storm sewer system or other flood control structure (McLaughlin, 2016). They minimize the volume of stormwater runoff from the ground level and allow for the infiltration and remediation of pollutants while reducing the amount of water that is directed towards storm sewers. The research seeks to provide an understanding of how the efficacy of bioswales is related to the projected climatic conditions in North Texas and their …
