Linking sustainable drainage systems (SuDS) together with ecosystem services and disservices : new connections in urban ecology
Thesis
Chunglim, M. (in press). Linking sustainable drainage systems (SuDS) together with ecosystem services and disservices : new connections in urban ecology. (Thesis). University of Salford

Increased flooding, urban diffuse pollution and habitat fragmentation are predicted as the climate changes and urbanisation increases; all will affect human and wildlife well-being negatively. Sustainable drainage systems (SuDS) have the potential t...
