Runoff Comparison
The objective of this tutorial was to examine the effects of two commonly used LIDs: filter strips and infiltration trenches on site’s runoff. Figure 2.7 compares the resulting influent and effluent hydrographs for filter strip W13-FS for each of the design storms. Figure 2.8 does the same for infiltration trench W14-IT. Results for the other LIDs look similar to these.
