Sc.) - Asian Institute of Technology - UNESCO-IHE, 2017  aA thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Science in Urban Water Engineering and Management jointly offered by the Asian Institute of Technology, Thailand and UNESCO-IHE, The Netherlands  aMore  than  half  of  the  world{u2019}s  population  live  in  cities,  urbanization  is  only  increasing, putting  high  pressure  on  water  and  ecosystems.  Our  future  depends  on  the  quality  of  our cities  and  the  challenge  is  to  keep  them livable,  healthy  and  in  harmony  with  the environment. Natured-based solutions (eg.  LID, BMP,  SUDS,  WSUD, GI)are currently under  research and  development to treat  water  as  a  resource that  must be  preserved  and  maintained, by mimicking  the  natural  water cycle  before  the development,  conserving  the  natural  runoff, water quality and having an impact on additional benefits like groundwater recharge, urban heat island effect, air pollution, amenity and aesthetics, recreation, pumping costs, rainwater harvesting among others. This   research   proposes   a   comprehensive framework for   selecting   and   evaluating combination  of  GI  measures to  reduce  the  stormwater  runoff  and  enhance additional benefits. More than 24 tools were identified and categorize, then according to four criteria where  selected  to  be  part  of  the framework. The application  of the framework  on  a  study case show that can be achieve up to 20% reduction on volume and peak flow runoff with a covering  area  of  only  5.6  %of  the  total  study  area.  The  most  cost-effective  GI  measures where bio-retention, rain garden and pervious pavement. 0aUrban runoffxManagement0 aSutat Weesakul,eChairperson1 aVojinovic, Zoran,eExamination committee0 aThammarat Koottatep,eExamination Committee0 aDuc Nguyen Hoang,eExamination committee1 aTorres, Arlex Sanchez,eExamination committee2 aCOLFUTURO,eScholarship donor2 aAsian Institute of Technology.tThesis ;vno.
