Urban Stream Syndrome
Original language description
Progressing urbanization and migration of population from rural to urban areas bring new challenges to the management of urban waters, particularly in preservation or restoration of aquatic habitats and in improving of the environmental sustainability ofour cities. Urban environment does not only affect the water quality by a continuously growing input of anthropogenic substances, but mainly changes the hydrological cycle via increasing amount of impervious surfaces in catchments. Urban drainage is onone hand an essential part of urban sanitation, but at the same time one of the main causes of stream deterioration. The recently adopted term "urban stream syndrome" summarizes the degradation of streams and aquatic biota in urban areas, characterized by flashier hydrograph, changes to channel stability and morphology, and deterioration of water and sediment quality.
