Climate extremes affect directly social and ecological systems. Therefore, extreme climatic indices based on daily precipitation as well as maximum and minimum air temperatures have been derived. A detailed analysis of extreme precipitation patterns is essential for the development of monitoring and mitigation strategies. The analysis of eight precipitation-related extreme climatic indices (annual total precipitation (PRCPTOT), heavy precipitation days (R10), very heavy precipitation days (R20), very wet days (R95...

Rapid urbanization encourages the transformation of natural zones into impermeable zones. Because of that, increasing in runoff and decreasing in water quality from urban areas have been appeared. As a solution of these problems, a plenty of technologies related to the stormwater management in urban areas have been developed. The main aim of these technologies is to minimize the environmental degradation. One of the developed solutions is Low Impact Development (LID) technology, which combines measures for polluti...
