This research study created new knowledge relating to urban stormwater pollutant process variability, and thereby developed an innovative approach to quantitatively assess the uncertainty associated with stormwater quality modelling outcomes. Build-up and wash-off of particulate solids of different size ranges and particle-bound heavy metals from urban road surfaces were analysed with the aid of mathematical replication models of these processes. The outcomes of this research study will contribute to enhanced planning and management decisions in relation to designing urban stormwater pollution mitigation strategies.document.getElementsByName("c12_disable_contact")[0].checked = true
