Urbanization and hydrological dynamics: a 22-year assessment of impervious surface changes and runoff in an urban watershed
The frequency and intensity of flooding have been increasing in urban watersheds. Urbanization disrupts natural landscapes by replacing vegetated areas with impervious surfaces, reducing infiltration and increasing runoff. The objective of this study was to evaluate the relationship between change i...
