Rapid decision support tool based on novel ecosystem service variables for retrofitting of permeable pavement systems in the presence of trees (2013)
Journal Article
Scholz, M., & Uzomah, V. (2013). Rapid decision support tool based on novel ecosystem service variables for retrofitting of permeable pavement systems in the presence of trees. Science of the Total Environment, 458-46, 486-498. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.scitotenv.2013.04.062

The retrofitting of sustainable drainage systems (SuDS) such as permeable pavements is currently undertaken ad hoc using expert experience supported by minimal guidance based predominantly on hard engineering variables. There is a lack of practical d... Read More about Rapid decision support tool based on novel ecosystem service variables for retrofitting of permeable pavement systems in the presence of trees.

Selecting sustainable drainage structures based on ecosystem service variables estimated by different stakeholder groups (2013)
Journal Article
Scholz, M., Uzomah, V., Almuktar, S., & Radet-Taligot, J. (2013). Selecting sustainable drainage structures based on ecosystem service variables estimated by different stakeholder groups. Water, 5(4), 1741-1759. https://doi.org/10.3390/w5041741

In times of recession, expert systems supporting environmental managers undergo a revival. However, the retrofitting of sustainable water structures is currently undertaken ad hoc using engineering experience supported by minimal formal guidance. The...
