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

This paper surveys flood mapping and modelling in Nigeria in regard to frequency and
impact of floods in the last decade. The aim is to understand the frequency and patterns of …

The intensity and frequency of extreme precipitation have increased in many regions in the
past century due to climate change. Many studies have revealed that short‐duration extreme …

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 …

Increasing precipitation extremes are one of the possible consequences of a warmer
climate. These may exceed the capacity of urban drainage systems, and thus impact the …

The detection of anthropogenic influences on climate extremes at regional scale is important
for the development of national climate change policy. Global climate simulations from …

A conditional copula function based downscaling model in a fully Bayesian framework is
developed in this study to evaluate future changes in intensity–duration frequency (IDF) …

As a warming climate leads to more frequent heavy rainfall, the importance of accurate
rainfall statistics is increasing. Rainfall statistics are often presented as intensity-duration …

A common existing approach to modeling rainfall extremes employs a spatial Bayesian
hierarchical model, where latent Gaussian processes are specified on distributional …

The increase in urbanization and climate change projections point to a worsening of floods
and urban river contamination. Cities need to adopt adaptive urban drainage measures …
