Cumulative distribution of surface runoff volume as a percentage of total measured volume with increasing precipitation depth for streets with and without street trees

Detailed Description
Cumulative distribution of surface runoff volume as a percentage of total measured volume with increasing precipitation depth in the test and control catchments during the calibration and treatment phase. Increased surface runoff volume following the removal of trees in the test catchment indicates the presence of street trees can reduce surface runoff volume.

Monitoring and predicting the impacts of trees on urban stormwater volume reduction
Much has been learned about how effectively individual green infrastructure practices can reduce stormwater volume, however, the role of urban trees in stormwater detention is poorly understood. This study quantified the impact that trees have on stormwater runoff volume.
