Infiltration Rates Associated with Green Space Loss and Urbanization By Heidi Keller and Richard Morse

Outline Introduction Methods and Procedures Collection of Data Results Conclusions

AS AN AREA BECOMES URBANIZED, INFILTRATION DECREASES.

LOCATION MAP EAST AVE BROOKS AVE

Urbanized Surfaces

HOW DO INFILTRATION RATES EFFECT RUNOFF ? When Rates Are Lower, Run Off Is Higher

HOW DO INFILTRATION RATES DIFFER ON URBANIZED SURFACES? As Compaction Increases, Infiltration Decreases. As Traffic On An Area Increases, Less Water Is Absorbed Into The Soil.

CONCLUSIONS Vegetation Increases Infiltration Controls Runoff Compaction Leads To Less Infiltration The Public Should Know About This
