实时控制能否提供环境流量以保护城市河流？在不断变化的气候中，干旱和洪水的频率和严重程度都在增加，加剧了对城市河流已经严重的全球影响。该项目旨在测试一种世界首创的方法，利用实时控制技术的进步来解决这一问题。该方法促进了水资源的公私合作管理，在供水、减轻洪水和提供环境流量以保持健康的城市河流方面同时带来好处。它有可能彻底改变我们管理城市水资源的方式，为世界各地的水务行业提供一个适应气候变化的模式，将过量和破坏性的城市径流转化为供水和环境流量的双重资源。

Can real-time control deliver environmental flows to protect urban streams? Increased frequency and severity of both droughts and floods in a changing climate accentuate the already-severe global impacts on urban streams. This project aims to test a world-first approach to tackling this problem, using advances in real-time control technology. The approach facilitates a public-private co-management of water resources, offering simultaneous benefits in water supply, flood mitigation and provision of environmental flows to maintain healthy urban streams. It has the potential to revolutionise the way we manage water in cities, providing a model for the water industry around the world in adapting to a changing climate, turning excess and damaging urban runoff into a dual resource of water supply and environmental flows.
