One of the most important impacts of a future warmer climate is the projected increase in the
frequency and intensity of extreme rainfall events. This increasing trend in extreme rainfall is …

Abstract Intensity-duration-frequency (IDF) curves–sometimes also called precipitation
frequency estimates–are used to design urban drainage systems for stormwater control and …

Land use and land cover changes, population growth, urban sprawl and climate change are
expected to augment the pressure on natural environment and on existing infrastructure. As …

Extreme precipitation of multiple durations is responsible for major natural hazards in
mountainous regions, such as flash floods and debris flows. Understanding the orographic …

Climate variability influences renewable electricity supply and demand and hence system
reliability. Using the hidden states of the sea surface temperature of tropical Pacific Ocean …

Urban flooding is one of the greatest threats to life and property, further exacerbated by the
impacts of a warming climate. Balancing the increasing demand for liveable space with …

Characteristics of extreme rainfall events are often presented using the Intensity-Duration-
Frequency (IDF) curves. As Canada gets warmer, the credibility of using historical IDF …

Flash floods represent a significant threat, triggering severe natural disasters and leading to
extensive damage to properties and infrastructure, which in turn results in the loss of lives …

Enhancing stormwater drainage systems is paramount amid evolving climate dynamics,
necessitating robust design and continual upgrades to address changing environmental …

Precipitation intensity–duration–frequency (IDF) curves play a crucial role in the design and
planning of urban infrastructure to reduce the risk of urban flooding and rainfall‐triggered …
