Great research

and

The books below…
Volume 1 contains more information on active water-harvesting systems including a set of guiding principles for cistern systems, and how to size your tank based on how much water is being caught by your fog harvesting systems or running off your collection surface (roof), and your water needs. The book also contains information on passive water harvesting systems to which you can direct your tank overflow.
Volume 2 does not cover active water-harvesting systems, but does contain detailed step-by-step instructions on how to design, build, and grow dozens of different passive systems to which you can direct your harvested fog, tank overflow, or dole out your stored water.
