Effectiveness of Green Cover on Water Retention in Cities
Many cities suffer the consequences of a flood after a large amount of water falls in a short period of time. This Learning Scenario aims to study which plant species are capable of storing the greatest amount of water in the soil in our city, in order to maximize the effectiveness of water retention in cities by the green cover (plants and vegetation that help absorb and retain water), putting into practice nature-based solutions (NBS). To do this, a humidity sensor is built with Arduino (open source electronic platform) and measurements of humidity and water infiltration capacity are made in the soils around different species of trees and shrubs.
