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

Due to difficulties in identifying a climate change signal in flood magnitude, it has been
suggested that shifts in flood timing, that is, the day of annual streamflow maxima, may be …

Better understanding and quantification of river floods for very local and “flashy” events calls
for modeling capability at fine spatial and temporal scales. However, long-term discharge …

Flooding during or after droughts poses significant challenges to disaster risk management.
However, interactions between droughts and floods are often overlooked as studies typically …

This study unveils regional patterns of dominant streamflow generation mechanisms across
the conterminous United States and identifies their climatic and physiographic controls. Six …

Despite increasing evidence of intensification of extreme precipitation events associated
with a warming climate, the magnitude of peak river flows is decreasing in many parts of the …

In Europe, floods are typically analysed within national boundaries and it is therefore not
well understood how the characteristics of local floods fit into a continental perspective. To …

Floods are some of the most frequent and severe natural hazards worldwide. In the context
of climate change, the risk of extreme floods is expected to increase in the future. While, the …

Understanding the generation mechanisms of floods is important to estimating future flood
hazards by improving flood frequency analysis and flood trend interpretation. From the …

Mesoscale convective systems (MCSs) with larger rain areas and higher rainfall intensity
than non‐MCS events can produce severe flooding. Flooding occurrences associated with …
