Climate extremes threaten human health, economic stability, and the well-being of natural
and built environments (eg, 2003 European heat wave). As the world continues to warm …

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

Despite evidence of increasing precipitation extremes, corresponding evidence for
increases in flooding remains elusive. If anything, flood magnitudes are decreasing despite …

Increases in extreme rainfall intensities as a result of climate change pose a great risk due to
the possibility of increases in pluvial flooding, particularly in urban and developed areas. But …

Precipitation fluctuations are continuously threatening the environment and may cause huge
economic losses. In present study, the precipitation over China has been evaluated under …

The assessment of sources of moisture is key to the understanding of the hydrological cycle
at different time scales, because it enables the establishment of source-sink relationships …

Nonstationary extreme value analysis (NEVA) can improve the statistical representation of
observed flood peak distributions compared to stationary (ST) analysis, but management of …

We present a general Bayesian hierarchical framework for conducting nonstationary
frequency analysis of multiple hydrologic variables. In this, annual maxima from each …

Unexpected incidents, failures, and disasters are abundant in the history of flooding events.
In this paper, we introduce the metaphors of terra incognita and terra maligna to illustrate …

This study focuses on improving the accuracy of projections for future rainfall erosivity by
selecting five CMIP6-based and bias-adjusted Global Climate Models (GCMs) in China …
