the two main approaches for estimating pmp are the synoptic and statistical techniques that their results are often different and selection of the appropriate option is difficult. in the most previous researches the frequency factor in the statistical method has been considered equal to 15 which this is the ultimate limit of frequency factor and the corresponding pmp is became too large. in the...

Abstract This article presents a conceptual study toward establishing new method for altering lateral boundary conditions in numerical model based estimates probable maximum precipitation (PMP). We altered an extreme event physically and dynamically consistent way regional convective-scale weather prediction (AROME-MetCoOp) by applying fields from global ensemble climate approach on EC-EARTH. T...

Probable maximum precipitation (PMP) is the conceptual construct that defines the magnitude of extreme storms used in the design of dams and reservoirs. In this study, the value and utility of applying multifractal analysis techniques to systematically calculate physically meaningful estimates of maximum precipitation from observations in the eastern United States is assessed. The multifractal ...
