Evaluating extreme precipitation in gridded datasets with a novel station database in Morocco [PDF]
, 2023 Morocco is a large country with complex terrain and many sparsely populated regions. With a semi-arid climate, it is highly vulnerable to floods driven by extreme precipitation, whose distribution is highly variable in space and time. Yet, this topic has

Statistical Tests for Extreme Precipitation Volumes [PDF]
Mathematics, 2019 The analysis of the real observations of precipitation based on the novel statistical approach using the negative binomial distribution as a model for describing the random duration of a wet period is considered and discussed. The study shows that this distribution fits very well to the real observations and generalized standard methods used in ...

Tropical Precipitation Extremes
Journal of Climate, 2013 AbstractClassifying tropical deep convective systems by the mesoscale distribution of their cloud properties and sorting matching precipitation measurements over an 11-yr period reveals that the whole distribution of instantaneous precipitation intensity and daily average accumulation rate is composed of (at least) two separate distributions ...

Climatological features and trends of extreme precipitation during 1979–2012 in Beijing, China [PDF]
Proceedings of the International Association of Hydrological Sciences, 2015 In this study, three kinds of hourly precipitation series with the spatial resolution of 0.1° are used to analyze the climatological features and trends of extreme precipitation during the period of 1979–2012 in Beijing, China. The results show that: (
