Papers from sessions of the Proceedings of the World Environmental and Water Resources Congress 2016, held in West Palm Beach, Florida, May 22–26, 2016. Sponsored by the Environmental and Water Resources Institute of ASCE. This collection contains 45 peer-reviewed papers from the Water, Wastewater, and Stormwater Council and the Urban Watershed Symposium. Topics include: performance of urban watersheds; urban stormwater management; hazard analysis in urban hydrology; evaluation of wastewater treatment systems; modeling of stormwater systems; and water quality evaluation. This proceedings will be of interest to practitioners as well as government and academic professionals, providing the latest case studies, research, and public policy information.

The school of thought surrounding the urban ecosystem has increasingly become in vogue among researchers worldwide. Since half of the world’s population lives in cities, urban ecosystem services have become essential to human health and wellbeing. Rapid urban growth has forced sustainable urban developers to rethink important steps by updating and, to some degree, recreating the human–ecosystem service linkage.Assessing as well as estimating the losses of ecosystem services can denote the essential effects of urbanization and increasingly indicate where cities fall short. This second book on urban ecosystem services contains 11 thoroughly refereed contributions published within the Special Issue “Urban Ecosystem Services II: Toward a Sustainable Future”. The book addresses topics such as cultural ecosystem services, green infrastructure, urban trees, urban green spaces, and more. The contributions highlight current knowledge, gaps, and future research with the focus on building a sustainable future.
