Increased wildfire activity in the western United States has exposed regional gaps our understanding of postfire debris-flow generation. To address this problem, we characterized flows an unstudied area to test rainfall intensity-duration control hazard. Our measurements and field observations from northern Sierra Nevada (California, USA) show that debris resulted a short burst during low-accum...

In this study, we analyzed the brightness temperature characteristics of short-duration heavy rainfall (SDHR) along Chengdu–Chongqing Railway (CCR), an important corridor economic and transportation activity in southwest China. Our findings could prove useful monitoring advance warning SDHR events: (1) predominantly occurred from July to August, with a peak frequency CCR area. terms diurnal var...

In this study a new conceptual model for partial duration series analysis was applied to determine the likely rainfall of the monsoon season and the pattern of rainfall events distribution. Example case study was carried out with rainfall data of semiarid area, Agra, India, experiencing extremes of yearly rainfall; ranging between high (1200 mm) to low (300 mm). The coefficient values for the e...

It is vital to quantify the changes in IDF relationship due climate change for designing climate-resilient urban hydraulic structures. Such projections are also important ungauged locations possible expansion or human settlements. This work proposed a method curve construction with associated uncertainty at under scenarios, considering peninsular Malaysia as case study. The bias Global Satellit...

Due to the short duration, high intensity and sudden of torrential rain, mountain torrents are easily formed in northern hilly area.The distributed hydrological model is used as main means rain-flood forecasting. Rainfall an important input,its spatial interpolation accuracy time scale directly affect forecast results.Therefore, this paper, calculation analysis rainstorm process with hourly car...

the economic growth and development programs in iran call for particular attention for environmental quality control and protection through designing proper sewage treatment and disposal. to design such system, 'the frequency analysis of rainfall is required for the estimation of quantities of flows. there are few places in iran, with adequate rainfall data to permit frequency analysis, an...

The occurrence of flash floods is an increasingly common phenomenon. In many parts the world, it associated with increase in intensity rainfall. Reducing financial and social losses caused by local urban possible through use hydrodynamic modeling real-time flood forecasting. purpose this study to assess ability technique simulate flow a small catchment area determine time remaining reach set wa...

Determining Depth-Area-Duration (DAD) curves in drainage basins is one of the applied researches in hydrology. DAD curves exhibit the depth and the area covered by the rainfall with a particular duration. DAD analysis is widely used in characterization of precipitation extremes for specification of so-called design storms. In this study the DAD curves for the Kurdistan province were prepared an...
