Careful urban planning is needed to ensure that the hydrologic cycle and water quality of the catchment areas are not affected. There are techniques that can attenuate peak flow during rain events and reduce the amount of metals, nutrients, and bacteria that enter the urban water cycle. This brief gives a short introduction on bioretention systems and documents the effectiveness of some 36 plant species in removing water pollutants. A summary on the maintenance requirements is also presented. 588 0 Online resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed November 21, 2014). 590 SpringerLink|bSpringer Nature Open Access eBooks 650 0 Rain gardens. 650 0 Bioswales. 650 0 Plant selection. 650 7 Bioswales.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01749385 650 7 Plant selection.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01065680 650 7 Rain gardens.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01747522 700 1 Hunt, W.
