Climate vulnerability in the Indian region becomes a major concern due to the frequent
hydro-meteorological extreme events throughout the year. The number of extreme rainfall …

Future rainfall extremes are projected to increase with global warming according to theory
and climate models, but common (annual) and rare (decennial or centennial) extremes …

In response to flood risk, design flood estimation is a cornerstone of planning, infrastructure
design, setting of insurance premiums, and emergency response planning. Under stationary …

The potential compounding behaviour of heatwaves and extreme rainfall have important
implications for a range of hazards, including wildfires and flooding, yet remain poorly …

Short-duration rainfall extremes can cause flash flooding with associated impacts. Previous
studies of climate impacts on extreme precipitation have focused mainly on daily rain totals …

Short-duration extreme rainfall events are the main trigger of flash and pluvial floods in
cities. Depending on the local climate zone and urban fabric that affect meteorological …

Understanding the relationship between tropical cyclone (TC) precipitation and sea surface
temperature (SST) is essential for both TC hazard forecasting and projecting how these …

Synthetic design storms are often used to plan new drainage systems or assess flood
impacts on infrastructure. To simulate extreme rainfall events under climate change, design …

Warming of the climate is now unequivocal. However, probable dynamics of changes in the
precipitation regimes remains disputable under potential future warming. Theoretically …

Understanding the response of extreme precipitation (EP) at a city scale to global warming is
critical to reducing the respective risk of urban flooding. Yet, current knowledge on this issue …
