Add to ORKGSponge cities have been recognized as the major measures to deal with urban drainage and waterlogging and restore urban water ecology in China. However, the existing evaluation indices could not calculate ecological benefits of the whole sponge city system. The objective of this study is to develop an emergy ecological model for evaluating the ecological benefits and sustainability of the urban stormwater system with a sponge city case in Xiamen, China. To achieve this objective, this study adopts the emergy analysis method and proposed the emergy flow diagrams of grey and green water networks. The results confirmed that the green water network was more sustainable. Additionally, this study selected the Wastewater Reuse Rate and Rainwater U...
