Urban Stormwater Quality Modelling Industry Seminar
March 28, 2002
This CRC for Catchment Hydrology Industry Seminar presents the results of research undertaken by the Urban Stormwater Quality Program and the development of MUSIC (Model for Urban Stormwater Improvement Conceptualisation).
CANBERRA - Wednesday 8 May 2002 - National Convention Centre, Canberra
SYDNEY - Thursday 9 May 2002 - Powerhouse Museum, Ultimo
BRISBANE - Friday 10 May 2002 - 80 George Street, Brisbane
MELBOURNE - Monday 13 May 2002 - Hotel Sofitel, Melbourne
ADELAIDE - Tuesday 14 May 2002 - SARDI Plant Research Auditorium, Waite Research Precinct, Urrbrae
Who should attend:
Anyone involved in urban catchment management for the protection of urban aquatic environments, planning and design of urban stormwater management measures, land development and water sensitive urban design.
The seminar will be led by Associate Professor Tony Wong and will commence with a general overview of urban stormwater quality management. He will outline the attributes of Water Sensitive Urban Design, and current complexities in assessing the benefits and opportunities for implementing a range of stormwater treatment measures.
Speakers from the CRC's Urban Stormwater Quality research program will then present research results that support improved operation and performance of vegetated swales, bioretention systems, constructed wetlands, and ponds.
MUSIC is a decision support system that packages the results of many of these research activities into an easily used tool. A description and demonstration of MUSIC will follow. An industry representative will then describe their experience in applying MUSIC for urban stormwater planning and management. The seminar will conclude with a summary of the CRC's future research directions aiming to enhance the capability of MUSIC in developing and evaluating integrated urban stormwater management strategies.
Cost and Registration:
The seminar costs $33 (includes GST and coffee, tea and cake for morning tea).
