摘要:In this paper, based on remote sensing image processing and SWMM simulation, we evaluate the effectiveness of a coupled LIDs system for the watershed scale. The main content and contributions include: 1) the extraction and classification of historical and recent LULC data (in 1979, 1989, 1999, 2009, 2017) of the study area and an analysis of the characteristics of the LULC change; 2) a watershed-based SWMM applied to the simulation of the runoff and an analysis of the runoff change characteristics; 3) the proposal and design of three coupled LIDs scenarios which treat runoff change as evaluation metric to systematically discuss the effectiveness of LIDs in the watershed. The results show that the combination structure and scale can significantly affect the coupled LIDs effectiveness. A system with multiple LIDs is more effective than one with only single LIDs. With the increase of spatial scale, the effectiveness of the coupled LIDs gradually weakens. Our research enriches the application scale of LIDs and SWMM, and can be beneficial to the construction of the “Sponge City”, storm management and urban planning.
