Abstract
Urbanization is increasing in the U.S. and around the world. Although the shift from rural to urban land has been studied extensively, there is a lack of knowledge regarding the specific hydrologic impacts of the redevelopment of previously urbanized areas – for example, a rapid conversion from single family to multi-family homes – known as infill development, or re-urbanization, especially in the face of climate change. A specific area that is experiencing increased urbanization directly from infill development is the Berkeley neighborhood of west Denver. This research focuses on the development of a stormwater model for implementing Best Management Practices (BMPs) in re-urbanized areas using the Berkeley neighborhood as a case study. The EPA’s System for Urban Stormwater Treatment and Analysis INtegration (SUSTAIN) model is parameterized for quantifying stormwater flow and contaminant loading for the Berkeley neighborhood. The SUSTAIN model is being calibrated and validated based on hand-collected water quality and event-based storm data. Ultimately, this research will create a framework for predicting stormwater quantity and quality impacts from land use and climate change along the front range of Colorado as well as other western urban centers.
