![]() SWMM ( Rossman 2004) is one of the most widely used urban watershed hydrology and water-quality models in the world ( Obropta and Kardos 2007). However, embedding a new mechanistic algorithm or providing user guidance for coupling with other models will be necessary to realistically simulate diffuse pollutant sources, their fate and transport, and the effectiveness of GI/LID implementation scenarios. It is concluded that the level of detail underlying the conceptual model of SWMM versus its overall computational parsimony is well balanced-making it an adequate model for large and medium-scale hydrologic applications. ![]() A gap analysis assesses the model’s ability to perform water-quality simulations considering green infrastructure (GI)/low impact development (LID) designs and effectiveness. The results provide utility to others looking for a quick reference to gauge the integrity of their own unique SWMM application. The major developmental history and applications of the model are also presented. This review focuses on collecting information on model performance with respect to calibration and validation in the peer-reviewed literature. Hundreds of peer-reviewed articles and conference proceedings have been written describing applications of SWMM. The storm water management model (SWMM) is a widely used tool for urban drainage design and planning. ![]()
