5 Heat Island effect Urban Heat Stress => Health Stress Reasons for Heat Island effect: Raised heat storage & radiation Lower evatranspiration => lower cooling Quelle: cnx.org

6 Compensation of Effects by Stormwater Infiltration Evaporation Stormwater infiltration

7 Concept of Measures LID, SUDS, WSUD, BMP and Blue Green Infrastructure Rainfall Evaporation Uptake (Usage) Overflow runoff? Infiltration Runoff - Uncontrolled - Controlled

8 Storm-Water-Management and Informationssystem for Emscher-Region Emscher-Region 25 km Duisburg Bochum Dortmund Essen ~ 865 km² ~ 266 km² sealed area 66 km

9 Emscher-Regeneration Before: Open Combined Sewer Aim: natural stream Begin: End of 1980th Duration app years Projekt (starting 2005): 15% Disconnection of areas in 15 years App. ~ m²!! Measures Disconnection and separate sewers, Decentralised wwtp s, etc. Investment: ~4.5 Bill. Emscher-Region Duisburg BochumDortmund Essen

10 Route of storm water Fotos: M. Kaiser

11 ZUGABE Prioritising Strategical Planning Multi? Criteria Analysis Aim: Identify areas with high synergy effects!

12 RISA Hamburg Rainwater InfraStructure Adaption Rainwater InfraStructure Adaption From 2010 until 2014 Adaption of all relevant authorities and planning levels into cities storm water management plan Quantity and quality SUDS and centralised measures

13 Partners RISA Hamburg Output Report and guidelines on: - Road design - Greenroofs strategy - Sewer design - Storm water management in public building - Multifunctional storage area - Improvement of rivers and lakes - Storm water treatment

14 Concepts of Urban Waste and Storm Water Management Project KURAS in Berlin Leader: Kompetenzzentrum Wasser Berlin (KWB)

15 Measures of stormwater management Folie 15 Building level City quarter level Catchment level

16 Copenhagn (DK) Climate Adaption Plan (2011) - Climate neutral city - Climate adaption measures - Flexibility - Synergy with other planning - High technical level - Green growth Strategy - Cooperation and information

17 Copenhagn (DK) Climate Adaption Plan (2011) Disconnection of Storm Water with SUDS Conveying of storm water with little or no damage Establishing Green Infrastuctures continously Opening Pipes to water courses Investment: Several Mio. EUR in the next decade

31 Connection of water balance to urban climate Soil humidity as transfer parameter effecting evapotranspiration

32 Future: Managing and Steering Storages

33 Lessions learned Many solutions for storm water management With decentralised solutions quantity and quality of problems can be solved Managing these storages with rainfall prediction will enhance solutions Integrated planning of all planning levels Early integration in planning phase is needed Usage Infiltration Transpiration Retention Treatment Drainage
