Research into potential implications of climate change on flood hazard has made significant
progress over the past decade, yet efforts to translate this research into practical guidance …

Conventional methods for designing infrastructure that is subject to flood risk, such as dams
and levees, assume a stationary design flood. However, observed and potential non …

Despite the expectation that increases in rainfall with climatic change will result in increases
in pluvial flooding, there is more historical evidence for decreases in flood magnitude. In …

Due to difficulties in identifying a climate change signal in flood magnitude, it has been
suggested that shifts in flood timing, that is, the day of annual streamflow maxima, may be …

Flood damages are projected to increase with climate change due to intensification of
extreme rainfalls, with water scarcity also projected to increase due to longer periods of …

Abstract Stochastic Storm Transposition (SST) involves resampling and random geospatial
shifting (ie transposition) of observed storm events to generate hypothetical but realistic …

A changing climate, with intensifying precipitation may contribute to increasing failures of
dams by overtopping. We present the first analysis of rainfall sequences and events …

Accurate estimation of the T-year return levels of climate extremes using statistical
distribution is a critical step in the projection of future climate and in engineering design for …

A state-of-the-art review on the probable maximum precipitation (PMP) as it relates to
climate variability and change is presented. The review consists of an examination of the …

Floods are the product of complex interactions among processes including precipitation, soil
moisture, and watershed morphology. Conventional flood frequency analysis (FFA) methods …
