Enhancing Stormwater Management: Climate Data Sources and Methodologies for Informed Decision-Making
Properly managing the quantity of stormwater is essential to avoid infrastructure damage and ensure road safety. Climate change has emerged as a critical challenge to the sustainable development of transportation infrastructure stormwater management systems. As global temperatures rise and extreme weather events become more frequent and intense, civil infrastructure is facing increased vulnerability to flooding, erosion, and structural damage. Researchers have been working to quantify such impacts from climate change with urban development and urban stormwater infrastructure as case studies. Understanding current research of climate impacts on stormwater management is vital for engineers and planners as it enables them to develop resilient and sustainable infrastructure. With climate change influencing precipitation patterns and intensities, informed decisions can lead to effective drainage systems, minimizing flooding risks, protecting ecosystems, and enhancing overall infrastructure resilience. Hence, in order to provide understanding of the research progress, this paper provides a critical review of the literature with regard to the methodologies used to study climate change and its impact on stormwater runoff. Sources of projected climate data and how they are downscaled and used are also reviewed. Finally, it identifies and summarizes future research needs.
