Abstract:
Klaten Regency is one of the regions that has a high level of flood vulnerability. The area of Klaten Regency which is huge and has diverse characteristics makes it difficult to determine an appropriate flood management model. Water Sensitive Urban Design (WSUD) is a model that focuses on handling water management problems with environmentally friendly infrastructure. Therefore, an analysis is carried out to determine the level of flood vulnerability and factors causing flooding to plan a WSUD design that is suitable for each sub-districts of Klaten Regency. The Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) and Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) methods are used to help the analysis. Aspects used as criteria are rainfall, slope, soil type, geological conditions, and land use. Based on the analysis, it could be concluded that Klaten Regency has two sub-districts with high flood hazard category, 21 sub-districts with medium category, and three sub-districts with low category. Bayat and Cawas are sub-districts that have a high level of flood vulnerability category. Meanwhile, Kemalang, Karangnongko and Polanharjo are districts with a low level of flood vulnerability category. The main factors causing flooding in Klaten Regency are slope and land use.

Abstract:
In rapidly growing urban contexts, water plays a pivotal role in the transitions the urban environment goes through to sustain the quality of life of its population. Spatial planning and design are essential for the facilitation and manifestation of such transitions. Focusing on Bhuj, a rapidly growing Indian city in a hot arid desert climate, its crucial yet changing sensitivity to urban water flows over time is assessed. The concept of water sensitivity is coined as a goal to pursue by the Water-Sensitive Urban Design approach. In India, however, much of the urban design and development processes are of an unplanned and informal nature, seemingly inhibiting the water sensitivity of urban transitions. Reviewing spatial planning paradigms and their manifestation in space in Bhuj over time, however, brings to light a pre-existing water sensitivity. Yet it also shows a shift from the supply security-oriented ingenious watershed expansion to catastrophe-steered and urban expansion-driven water system negligence. Review and discussion of past and present urban water transitions and management points out drivers, barriers, and their interrelationships, to enable and advance water-sensitive urban development tied to local history, traditional knowledge, and context specificities.

Abstract:
Water sensitive urban developments are designed with integrated urban water management concepts and water sensitive urban design measures. The initiatives that may be included are the substitution of imported drinking water with alternative sources using a fit-for-purpose approach and structural and non-structural measures for the source control of stormwater. A water sensitive approach to urban development can help in achieving sustainability objectives by minimising disturbance to ecological and hydrological processes, and also relieve stress on conventional water systems. Water sensitive urban developments remain novel in comparison with conventional approaches, so the understanding and knowledge of the systems in regards to their planning; design; implementation; operation and maintenance; health impacts and environmental impacts is still developing and thus the mainstream uptake of these approaches faces many challenges. A study has been conducted to understand these challenges through a detailed literature review, investigating a large number of local greenfield and infill developments, and conducting extensive consultation with water professionals. This research has identified the social, economic, political, institutional and technological challenges faced in implementing water sensitive urban design in greenfield and infill developments. The research found in particular that there is the need for long-term monitoring studies of water sensitive urban developments. This monitoring is important to validate the performance of novel approaches implemented and improve associated guidelines, standards, and regulatory and governance frameworks, which can lead to mainstream acceptance of water sensitive urban development approaches. The dissemination of this research will help generate awareness among water professionals, water utilities, developers, planners and regulators of the research challenges to be addressed in order to achieve more mainstream acceptance of water sensitive approaches to urban development. This study is based on existing water sensitive urban developments in Australia, however, the methodology adopted in investigating impediments to the uptake of these developments can be applied globally. It is hoped that insights from this study will benefit water professionals in other countries where there is also a move towards water sensitive urban development.

Abstract:
This project evaluates green roofs as a stormwater management tool. The goal of the project is to develop a computer aided stormwater model incorporating green roof, and evaluate its effectiveness. Specifically, the influence of media type, media depth, duration of rainfall event and average reoccurrence interval are investigated in design rainfall. The finalised model is then validated based on observed rainfall for the months of January and February of 2014. Results indicate that the green roofs are capable of removing 73.5% and 86.9% of the monthly rainfall volumes for January and February 2014, respectively, from a roof through retention. Water retention by green roofs effectively increases the time to reach the peak runoff, and slows the peak flows for a watershed. There are seasonal considerations as more runoff is generated during the month of January (northeast monsoon season) compared with the month of February (normal weather). Green roof is also effective in retaining 100% of several storms of less than 10 mm. The results demonstrate that the proposed extensive green roof for the study area functions as an excellent bio-retention system for stormwater control. The results of this research are in tandem with those of other researches performed throughout the world on hydrologic characteristics of green roof.

Abstract:
This paper presents a research study aimed at the development of a hybrid biofilter that can serve for two different applications. This is a unique approach due to the prolonged dry period in Israel covering 7-8 months of the year. The tactic suggested herein is to use the same system for stormwater harvesting/treatment during winter, and for bioremediation of nitrate-contaminated groundwater during summer. Crude cotton and Eucalyptus wood-chips served as alternative carbon sources for denitrification, and both proved to support efficient reduction of nitrate with minimal release of nitrite and organic matter. During the stage of stormwater treatment, two types of biofilter-columns (120 & 70 cm long) were tested, with a minimal saturation zone and no addition of organic carbon. Complete nitrification could be achieved, even under high instantaneous hydraulic loads for both column types. Vegetation on top of the biofilters contributed to improved removal of the nitrate formed, by plant assimilation.

Abstract:
Water Sensitive Urban Design (WSUD) technologies are green infrastructures that aim to restore the hydrological balance of urban catchments. This research aimed to investigate the impacts of climate change in an infiltration-based WUSD, called soak-away, at residential allotments from a Village Green townhouse complex, Aldinga, South Australia. To do so, specific rainfall data for the study area were collected and then projected for the years 2030, 2060 and 2090, considering the RCP 4.5 and 8.5 pathways. The projections were determined using CSIRO’s Climate Futures tool, as suggested in the Australia Rainfall Runoff guidelines. The rainfall’s projected impacts on the soak-away performance and dimensions were analyzed in terms of the Village Green catchment conditions, using the MUSIC model and stormwater source control principles. When analyzing the RCP 8.5 pathway for different years, the distinction in soak-away design was more evident and was directly related to the peak flow percentage of the increase obtained in the MUSIC model. On the other hand, for RCP 4.5, the years 2030 and 2060 presented the same characteristics, and 2090 had an equivalent rainfall projection as RCP 8.5 2030. Regarding treatment effectiveness, the soak-away dimensions reached almost 100% of pollutant removal, which indicates that the approach might oversize the system. Nonetheless, when comparing all soak-away designs, the recommended soak-away system tends to be conservative due to the uncertainties surrounding future climate projections.

Abstract:
Flood and drought conditions due to the global crisis occurred in Bayat District, Klaten Regency. This is due to the rural characteristics of the area, where land has been converted from forest to agricultural land and settlements. This condition causes rainwater cannot infiltrate into the ground, thereby increasing runoff and reducing groundwater reserves. Therefore, the concept of Water Sensitive Urban Design (WSUD) is applied to this location to reduce the risk of water disasters. One of the WSUD technologies that can be applied is the permeable paving block system. This system can help infiltrate water to the ground thereby reducing runoff that causes flooding and storing water to replenish groundwater reserves. The design is planned in the pilot area of Jotangan and Krikilan Villages, Bayat District by applying a partial exfiltration pavement system. The structural design of the pavement layers is in the form of a permeable paving block with a compressive strength of 21.29 MPa with a thickness of 10 cm, a bedding layer of 6 cm, an open-graded base of 18 cm, and a drain pipe with a capacity of 3,78 mm/hour. The permeable paving block system in the WSUD pilot area can reduce runoff by 62.64%.

Abstract:
At the end of the 20th century, highly urbanized areas began to explore water-sensitive urban design. In recent years, with the gradual expansion of China's urban scale, a large number of people enter the city to settle down, the pressure on urban roads is also increasing, and the limited ability of rainwater infiltration on roads leads to serious water logging in the city when it comes to the rainy season. Sponge city not only solves the problem of urban flooding, but also makes full use of rainwater resources, and will further alleviate the problem of water shortage. This paper takes the design perspective of "sponge city" in water-sensitive urban design as a starting point, explains the origin, connotation, multi-scale construction method and practice of the concept of "sponge city", and combines the Potsdamer Platz in Germany and the Vertical Forest Architecture Case in Italy, to understand the design of sunken green space in sponge city system and the architectural design of vertical garden style in resilient city.

Abstract:
Aside from modeling geometric shape, three-dimensional (3D) urban procedural modeling has shown its value in understanding, predicting and/or controlling effects of shape on design and urban planning. In this paper, instead of the construction of flood resistant measures, we create a procedural generation system for designing urban layouts that passively reduce water depth during a flooding scenario. Our tool enables exploring designs that passively lower flood depth everywhere or mostly in chosen key areas. Our approach tightly integrates a hydraulic model and a parameterized urban generation system with an optimization engine so as to find the least cost modification to an initial urban layout design. Further, due to the computational cost of a fluid simulation, we train neural networks to assist with accelerating the design process. We have applied our system to several real-world locations and have obtained improved 3D urban models in just a few seconds.

Abstract:
Abstract Cimahi City as a part of the Upper Citarum Sub-Watershed has problems with flooding, land subsidence, and clean water crisis caused by urban development. Currently, the multidisciplinary approach to urban water management has been expanded to include the hydrological cycle in it; one of the concepts that has been developed is water-sensitive urban design (WSUD). The purpose of this study is to measure changes in surface runoff as a result of changes in infiltration and runoff processes in the water cycle, calculate planned flood volume, determine the potential location and area of five WSUD elements, and formulate and measure the capability of WSUD scenarios in Cimahi City. This study uses the algebraic average, soil conservation service curve figures (SCS-CN), log-Pearson-III distribution, planned flood volume, and geospatial analysis. Based on the results of the SCS-CN method in Cimahi City in 3 time spans (2013, 2016, and 2019), there was an increase in the CN index and a decrease in the value of surface drift (S) that reflected the potential for runoff water produced. However, at the next stage of analysis, the SCS-CN method showed a decrease in surface runoff; this was due to the decreased rainfall from 2013 to 2016, then from 2016 to 2019 in Cimahi City. The geospatial analysis resulted in the potential location and area of five WSUD elements in Cimahi City. Furthermore, after testing the effectiveness of five WSUD elements and formulating a WSUD scenario, three WSUD elements were obtained as a part of the WSUD scenario in this study, namely sediment basin, retarding basin with, and stormwater harvesting. Last, the measurement of the WSUD scenario capability shows that the WSUD scenario reduces the planned flood volume by 84%.

Abstract:
The Tegalluar and Gedebage areas in Rancanumpang Village have been identified as potential transit-oriented development (TOD) sites. However, these areas face challenges due to their low elevation, which leads to ground level reductions and seasonal flooding. To address these issues, it is crucial to incorporate a water-sensitive urban design (WSUD) approach into the development of an interconnected and integrated transit-oriented area. Therefore, this study aims to propose an alternative design for the Tegalluar transit-oriented area, focusing on factors such as density, diversity, design, destination accessibility, distance to transit, and environmental considerations. A fragmental method was applied at different stages of the design and this led to the development of an alternative conceptual design simulation for the transit-oriented area based on the desired factors.

Abstract:
Water-sensitive urban design (WSUD) is a subset of nature-based solutions (NbSs) that are implemented worldwide. However, the WSUD guidelines in some local contexts, such as Southeast Asia, remain unclear both for ecological and cultural reasons. This study aims to gather collaborations between researchers, designers, and laypeople in WSUD, which have the potential to be implemented to address water quality issues. The study consisted of three stages: site selection, a design workshop, and public interviews. Utilizing geo-design principles and geographical data, the potential pilot site was identified: a vacant space next to the Tha Phae Gate Plaza. A two-day workshop with landscape design experts yielded six conceptual designs, focusing on diverse themes such as water treatment, plant-based solutions, educational opportunities, and cultural enrichment. Public interviews provided insights into the community’s perspectives on stormwater management, desired amenities, environmental considerations, and governance concerns. The results highlighted a collective interest in using NbSs for stormwater treatment and enhancing the area’s recreational and educational potential. This study offers a comprehensive approach to addressing water quality issues in urban settings while considering local cultural, recreational, and environmental needs.

Abstract:
The integration of urban water cycle management with urban planning and design is referred to as ‘Water Sensitive Urban Design’ or ‘WSUD’ in Australia; one of the key elements of WSUD is the management of urban stormwater. In early 2006, the Victorian Government released the Yarra River Action Plan, which allocated $20 million towards tackling urban stormwater pollution. To help ensure this money is allocated in an equitable and transparent manner across all metropolitan local governments a multi-criteria assessment tool has been developed. This paper presents an overview of the multi-criteria assessment tool developed and adopted for selecting WSUD projects that are eligible for funding through Melbourne Water's Stormwater Program. This tool considers three types of indicators: environmental, engagement (engagement with stakeholders and local government capacity building) and financial. Within each category, a series of indicators of different weightings are applied to score a project. Where initial concept designs do not meet the Program criteria, additional work is undertaken to refine and improve the project. The tool and its use are illustrated with a case study.

Abstract The issue of changes in natural conditions, Pangkal Pinang City as a downstream area of the Baturusa Watershed (DAS) with a city center whose city morphology is a basin resulting in Pangkal Pinang City receiving excessive water runoff, plus land deforestation due to illegal mining in the upstream river which is directly adjacent to the Regency Central Bangka which causes excessive sedimentation and poorly connected drainage channels. The existence of high rainfall intensity and the uncontrolled capacity of the retention pond causes the water level to rise which then flows into the retention pond area. As a result, the Rangkui river causes excessive water runoff, resulting in floods that spread to residential areas and the center of Pangkal Pinang City. The purpose of this study was to provide design concepts for the retention pond area using the Water Sensitive Urban Design method as a strategy for urban water management, particularly in the region of raw water sources. The design process is a fragmented one that starts with a collection of regional design-related problems and ends with a simulation of regional design. Recreational, residential, and educational activities will all be accommodated within the design area’s 94 hectares. The design of the area will focus on urban design elements combined with normative principles, namely land use, intensity and building, circulation and parking, pedestrian ways, open spaces, signage, preservation, and activity support. In addition, the design simulation will also focus on the water management system in the area with a WSUD technical approach that is directed to focus on efforts to infiltrate rainwater and provide rainwater storage containers, both in open spaces, green areas, and buildings.

The article sheds light on a number of architectural and urban planning principles of the WSUD (Water Sensitive Urban Design) strategy and the Sponge City concept as the effective means of fighting the effects of global climate change. The global practice of flood control in recent years has led to the emergence of a range of urban strategies that anticipate future flood risks and allow them to be managed more effectively in the context of urban transformation and climate change. Water Sensitive Urban Design (WSUD) is a new paradigm of urban development based on interdisciplinary collaboration between experts in water management, architecture, engineering, urban planning and landscape design, aimed at minimizing the hydrological impact of urban development on the environment. This approach considers all components of the urban water cycle and combines the functionality of water resources management with the principles of urban design. The analysis of successful world practice of implementation of city strategies of struggle against consequences of global climate change is carried out and the potential for its realization in Ukraine is revealed.

Abstract:
This study showcases the dynamic simulation capabilities of the Urban Biophysical Environments And Technologies Simulator (UrbanBEATS) on a Melbourne catchment. UrbanBEATS simulates the planning, design and implementation of water sensitive urban design (WSUD) infrastructure in urban environments. It considers explicitly the interaction between urban and water infrastructure planning through time. The model generates a large number of realizations of different WSUD interventions and their evolution through time based on a user-defined scenario. UrbanBEATS' dynamics was tested for the first time on a historical case study of Scotchman's Creek catchment and was trained using historical data (e.g. planning documents, narratives, urban development and societal information) to adequately reproduce patterns of uptake of specific WSUD technologies. The trained model was also used to explore the implications of more stringent future water management objectives. Results highlighted the challenges of meeting this legislation and the opportunities that can be created through the mix of multiple spatial scales.

Abstract:
The summer of 2022 was one of the hottest and driest summers that Germany experienced in the 21st century. Water levels in rivers sank dramatically with many dams and reservoirs running dry; as a result, fields could not be irrigated sufficiently, and even power generation and supply were affected. The impact of abnormally high temperatures for extended periods (heatwaves) is not restricted to nature and the economy but is also a considerable public health burden. Experts worldwide agree that these extreme weather events are being driven by climate change and will increase in intensity and frequency in the future. The adverse impact of these extreme weather events multiplies among dense urban environments, e.g., through heat islands. This calls for cities to take action to heat-proof and water-secure their urban developments. Water-Sensitive Urban Design (WSUD) is one such approach to mitigate the aforementioned challenges by leveraging the urban water ecosystem with special attention to the subject of water reclamation, retention, treatment and distribution. This paper introduces and builds upon a prototype of WSUD that centers around an artificial lake as an integrated water resource management system (IWRMS) fed by treated grey water and storm water obtained from two housing blocks flanking the water reservoir. Based on the specifications of this prototype, indicators of site suitability are derived and applied to identify potential locations for replicable projects in the city of Darmstadt. The results confirm the impact WSUD can have: a total of 22 sites with 2527 apartments are found suitable for prototype implementation in Darmstadt. Savings in town water consumption from these 22 sites would add up to 147 million liters. Further benefits include the provision of 24 million liters of irrigation water, storm water retention, adiabatic cooling during heatwave, increased biodiversity and the improvement in livability of the sites and the city.

Abstract:
No atual contexto de alterações climáticas a gestão da água necessita de responder a múltiplos desafios e pressões a que os recursos hídricos e as cidades estão expostos. A maior sensibilidade por parte da sociedade em relação a estas questões requer novas abordagens relativamente a problemas existentes e futuros, impondo desafios aos utilizadores do território e do capital natural água. A tendência atual direciona o enfoque para modelos que promovam adaptação e resiliência do espaço urbano, através de estratégias integradas e sustentáveis, para que o recurso água, essencial a todos, continue a satisfazer as necessidades humanas e a promover, além do equilíbrio ambiental, o bem-estar social. A abordagem Water Sensitive Urban Design (WSUD) define a cidade como uma bacia hidrográfica, integrando a gestão do ciclo urbano da água (CUA) no processo de desenvolvimento urbano, em que as águas pluviais e residuais são elemento-chave, considerando a cidade como fonte de serviços de ecossistemas. Reconhece que o desenvolvimento urbano e o próprio ordenamento do território exercem enormes pressões, podendo alterar de forma significativa o ciclo natural da água, e que, em conjunto com a existência de infraestruturas envelhecidas, as ineficiências e vulnerabilidades dos sistemas aumentam. A introdução de técnicas WSUD na gestão do CUA pretende reduzir áreas urbanas impermeáveis, promover a retenção temporária de águas, o seu tratamento, infiltração e/ou reaproveitamento, o mais próximo possível da sua origem, minimizando os impactos do desenvolvimento urbano sob o meio natural. O presente trabalho tem como principal objetivo desenvolver uma estratégia que promova a transição da cidade de Quarteira (concelho de Loulé) para uma Water Sensitive City (Cidade Sensível à Água), através da definição de um plano de intervenção assente nos princípios WSUD, ou seja, num planeamento urbano sensível à água, como alternativa à abordagem tradicional de gestão urbana da água, que promova a gestão integrada e sustentável do CUA e, simultaneamente, a resiliência e adaptação da cidade face às alterações climáticas, integrando a comunidade na tomada de decisões. O plano apresentado, suportado nas melhores práticas de gestão (BMPs) no domínio da abordagem WSUD e com enfoque nas zonas críticas diagnosticadas na área de estudo, inclue medidas para controlo na origem, tratamento e promoção da infiltração, por exemplo, pavimentos permeáveis, coberturas verdes, recolha e armazenamento de águas pluviais, bacias de detenção e swales de biorretenção.

Abstract:
In response to the escalating challenges posed by rapid urbanization, this article conducts a comprehensive exploration of innovative models for urban water management. Through a comparative analysis, we delve into the principles, methodologies, and potential outcomes of three prominent models: the Sustainable Urban Drainage Systems (SUDS), Water-Sensitive City Model (WSUD), and Depression-Infiltration Canal System Model. Each model offers a unique perspective on addressing urban water challenges, emphasizing sustainability, adaptability, and environmental protection. The SUDS model emphasizes replicating natural ecological drainage systems to mitigate urban waterlogging, enhance water quality, and promote sustainable water management practices. Incorporating green infrastructure, natural ecological restoration, and community participation, the WSUD model integrates various aspects of water management to achieve effective utilization and recycling of water resources while enhancing urban resilience. This paper is helpful to promote a more sustainable and flexible future.

Abstract:
Abstract. Landscape architects and urban designers are often tasked with decision-making about implementation of flood moderating measures in urban renewal projects. These decisions require consideration of complex, interdependent existing and proposed infrastructure, and must be informed by data and modelling from multiple disciplines such as hydrologists, transport engineers and urban planners. Here we describe the challenges of integrating these data and modelling from both GIS and BIM sources, into a framework that could support flood moderation decision-making, embedded within a spatially enabled Digital Twin. Our findings outline some of the considerable adjustments to future data collection methods that will be required to enable such a decision-support framework. Furthermore, we outline the requirements of the framework for employability in stakeholders and community decision-making forums. We test this framework on a large-scale urban renewal precinct in Melbourne Australia, with well recognised current and future flooding issues.

Abstract:
The ongoing challenge of maintaining and improving the quality of water that leaves urban stormwater systems is often addressed using technical rather than social solutions. The need for investment in often expensive water infrastructure can be reduced through better investing in promoting human behaviors that protect water quality as part of water-sensitive urban design (WSUD) initiatives. Successfully achieving this requires understanding factors that influence adoption of proenvironmental behaviors. We review past studies examining this topic and identify that factors influencing adoption of proenvironmental behaviors relevant to WSUD commonly fall into four domains: proenvironmental values and norms, awareness and knowledge of environmental problems and the actions that can address them, proximity and place-based identity, and life-stage and lifestyle factors. We propose the VAIL (values, awareness, identify, lifestyle) framework, based on these four domains and able to be contextualized to specific water-quality problems and individual communities, to assist in diagnosing factors influencing adoption of proenvironmental behaviors. We demonstrate the applicability of the framework in a case study examining adoption of gardening practices that support water quality in Canberra, Australia. We developed 22 locally relevant VAIL indicators and surveyed 3,334 residents to understand engagement in four water-friendly gardening behaviors that help improve water quality in local lakes. In regression modeling, the indicators explained a significant amount of variance in these behaviors and suggested avenues for supporting greater adoption of these behaviors. Predictor variables across all four VAIL domains were significant, highlighting the importance of a multidomain framework.
