This lecture discusses the challenges of urban water management, focusing on the design and optimization of retention basins, the importance of preserving biodiversity, and the need for sustainable development in urban areas. The instructor emphasizes the concept of multifunctionality in modern basin design, the interconnectedness of different ecosystems, and the role of engineers in managing watershed systems. The lecture also covers the impact of urbanization on water quality, the optimization of existing water retention structures, and the balance between new construction and environmental conservation efforts.
