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 …

Global warming is already significantly impacting communities, their health and
infrastructure. Previous studies showed that climate change is making the earth warmer …

The estimation of intensity-duration-frequency (IDF) curves for rainfall data comprises a
classical task in hydrology studies to support a variety of water resources projects, including …

The data scarcity and poor availability of observed daily rainfalls over Southeast Asia has
limited the possibility to a wider range of studies in light of impacts from climate change and …

This article compares the performances of three fitting methods (SLmom, S1NCM, and
S3NCM) to account for temporal characteristics of Annual Maximum Precipitations (AMPs) …

This study utilized a long-term (1951–2014) moderate-resolution observed gridded (0.5°×
0.5°) rainfall dataset to analyze long-term and short-term rainfall variability and the …

A strategy to evaluate the suitability of different multiplicative random cascades to produce
rainfall time series, taking into account climate change, inputs for green infrastructures …

Given the short concentration time in urban watersheds, the design of municipal water
infrastructures often requires knowledge of sub-daily precipitation intensity. Sub-daily time …

Many observed time series of precipitation and streamflow show heavy-tail behaviour. For
heavy-tailed distributions, the occurrence of extreme events has a higher probability than for …
