This generally results in a comparison between outflow volumes discharged from SCMs and a target condition annual runoff. Such a simplistic evaluation overlooks multiple pathways of water present in target watersheds and SCMs, namely shallow interflow and groundwater surge. This discussion suggests a more refined means of evaluating cognate conditions for SCMs in terms of hydrology and effluent water quality by discretizing SCM discharge into three pathways: runoff, shallow interflow, and groundwater surge. Preliminary evidence using deuterium isotopes from bioretention outflow supports this concept, and future research routes are suggested.}, journal={ECOLOGICAL ENGINEERING}, author={Cizek, Adrienne R. and Hunt, William F.}, year={2013}, month={Aug}, pages={40–45} }
