URBAN STORM DRAINAGE. PROCEEDINGS OF THE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE HELD AT THE UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHAMPTON, APRIL, 1978

Papers presented at the conference were: An engineering evaluation of storm profiles for the design of urban drainage systems in the UK (Price, AJ and Howard, RA); Local considerations affecting the choice of design storm frequency (Marshall, JK); Investigation of the accuracy of the postulate: total rainfall frequency equals flood peak frequency (Sieker, F); The short period rainfall forecasting pilot project and its relevance to storm sewer operation (Collier, CG and Browning, KA); Recent and planned rainfall studies in meteorological office with an application to urban drainage design (Folland, CK and Colgate, MG); Analysis of rainfall data for use in design of storm sewer systems (Arnell, V); Synthesized and historical storms for urban drainage design (Marsalek, J); A system for analysis of precipitation for urban sewer design (Dahlstrom, B); Measurement of runoff from an urban catchment (Tupper, DA and Waller, DH); Electronic data collecting system (Verworn, W); Urban rainfall-runoff-quality data for hydrologic model testing and urban runoff characterisation (Huber, WC and Heaney, JP); The Finnish urban storm water project (Melanen, M); Characteristics of the above ground runoff in sewered catchments (Falk, J and Niemczynowicz, K); A calibrated model for the simulation of the inlet hydrograph for fully sewered catchments (Kidd, CHR); A linear reservoir model for urban runoff (Nussey, BB and Sarginson, EJ); Direct design of surface water sewers (Hepworth, R); Improvements in the TRRL hydrograph program (Martin, C and King, D); (continued on TRIS abstract no 325659).
