Abstract: | Purpose The objective of the current research was to provide a strategy to remediate stormwater from an old, high-developed catchment
dominated (94%) by diffuse sources. Contaminated catchment soils, a dense road network and extensive residential development
have resulted in degraded sediments in the receiving basin. Retrofitting stormwater remedial devices in such catchment-estuarine
systems is difficult, costly and long term. |
