Systematic review of urban stormwater research in Sweden (2012-2021)
This report present the findings of a systematic review of Swedish stormwater research over the time period 2012-2021. Using defined search terms and inclusion and exclusion criteria, 149 papers were shortlisted for detailed review and discussion. The aim of the review was to provide a comprehensive update on the breadth and depth of Swedish stormwater research in a national and international context. Following an initial review, short-listed papers were initially grouped using a source pathway receptor approach, and then allocated to one of ten categories (based on the paper’s main focus). The research papers associated with each topic are then described to provide an overview of the current state-of-knowledge within a Swedish research context together with identified research gaps. The report concludes with a series of recommendations for further research. In terms of sources, the deleterious impact of urban stormwater runoff (a term which includes snowmelt) on receiving waterbody quality is well established in a Swedish context. The key sources of diffuse pollution (e.g. traffic, industrial activities) have been the subject of considerable attention with regard to classical urban pollutants (metals, hydrocarbons and particulate matter). However, much less is understood about their contribution to the occurrence of a wider range of substances e.g. microplastics and PFAS to the urban environment or of the processes contributing to pollutant release and how these vary over time in relation to e.g. ageing, corrosion and climate change. As the diversity of materials used within urban environments increases, developing an understanding of the identity of substances and their patterns of release overtime is an increasing priority in terms of mitigating current risks as well as informing (re)development practices to avoid contributing to future diffuse pollution loads. Pathways from the urbanenvironment to receiving waters direct runoff, discharge after treatment or via combined sewer overflows. Dry deposition is a ...
