A major part of renewable electricity production is characterized by a large degree of
intermittency driven by the natural variability of climate factors such as air temperature, wind …

The forecast of debris flow occurrence relies mainly on empirical rainfall intensity–duration
thresholds, which are based on rain gauge observations. This work focuses on the effect of …

Summary Intensity–Duration–Frequency (IDF) curves are widely used in flood risk
management because they provide an easy link between the characteristics of a rainfall …

We propose in this paper a regional formulation of Intensity–Duration–Frequency curves of
point-rainfall maxima in a scale-invariant Generalized Extreme Value (GEV) framework. The …

This paper is dedicated to the estimation of extreme quantiles and the tail index from heavy-
tailed distributions when a covariate is recorded simultaneously with the quantity of interest …

Climate and land use change (global change) impacts on groundwater systems cannot be
studied in isolation. Land use and land cover (LULC) changes have a great impact on the …

This paper presents a coupled observation and modelling strategy aiming at improving the
understanding of processes triggering flash floods. This strategy is illustrated for the …

This paper makes a regional evaluation of trend in yearly maxima of daily rainfall in southern
France, both at point and spatial scales on a regular grid of 8× 8 km 2. In order to filter out …

This article analyzes recent trends in extreme precipitation in the Southwestern Alps and
compares these trends to changes in the occurrence of the atmospheric influences …

Heavy precipitation (HP) constitutes a major meteorological threat in the western
Mediterranean (WMed). Every year, recurrent events affect the area with fatal consequences …
