Potential Use of Runoff Attenuation Features in small Rural Catchments for Flood Mitigation | Development of a number of small scale, low cost soft engineered flood reduction schemes, designed to store/attenuate rapid runoff in small rural catchments. Design and implimentation of a network of 35 NWRM measures in a Northumberland catchment. To aid understanding of how features impact on downstream flood hazard. | Rural runoff attenuation in the Belford catchment, UK |
A framework for managing runoff and pollution in the rural landscape using a Catchment Systems Engineering approach | Here a framework for applying a CSE approach to the catchment is shownin a step by step guide to implementing mitigation measures in the Belford Burn catchment. The framework is based around engagement with catchment stakeholders. | Rural runoff attenuation in the Belford catchment, UK |

An integrated approach towards assessing the feasibility of domestic rainwater harvesting in Malta | This paper explores the potential of small scale domestic rainwater harvesting on the island of Malta by taking an integrated look at the physical, social, and economic environments. It explores the extent to which domestic rainwater harvesting has been forgotten despite the fact of it being embedded within Malta†™s history for centuries. The study closely examines the cost-effectiveness of this technology both at a local and national scale and teases out the hurdles that have brought about its rejection by means of residential and water professional interviews. | Domestic rainwater harvesting in Malta |
Non Conventional Water Resources Programme in Malta (Alter Aqua) | The Maltese Islands have limited freshwater resources and depend heavily on desalination. Therefore there is an evident need to mobilise non conventional Water Resources (NCWR) in order to secure water availability and facilitate sustainable development. | Domestic rainwater harvesting in Malta |
