Urban stormwater management : European experience / by J. Marsalek.: En36-539/67-1979E-PDF
"A large majority of European countries are highly urbanized and a further progress of urbanization is predicted. It is estimated (15) that the European urban population will increase by 50% during the period from 1970 to 2000. High concentrations of population in relatively small areas (urban land use typically represents 5%-7% of the total land area) lead to increasing exploitation of natural resources and dramatic changes in the hydrological cycle. Of these changes, only the problem of urban stormwater is dealt with in this presentation"--Introduction.
