Mechanisms of Intense Alpine Rainfall

Journal of the Atmospheric Sciences, 2001
Abstract Numerical studies by the authors and others of the 1994 Piedmont flood show that the orographically modified flow was a critical element for the production of extraordinary rainfall. To uncover the precise mechanism of orographic rainfall occurring in full-physics MM5 simulations of the 1994 Piedmont flood, the authors carried out simulations ...

Rainfall Intensity in Design

World Environmental and Water Resources Congress 2008, 2008
An empirical, dimensionless-hyetograph that relates depth and duration, and thus whether a storm is front loaded, back loaded, or uniformly loaded, based on 92 gaging stations for storms known to have produced runoff is available for Texas. Statistical characteristics of storm interevent time, depth, and duration, based on analysis of hourly rainfall ...

Electric Rainfall Intensity Sensor

Journal of Applied Meteorology, 1978
Abstract An instrument having a logarithmic response is described that continuously measures rates of rainfall over the range 0.3–350 mm h−1 by determining the electrical power required to evaporate the water as it arrives on an exposed sensor. Laboratory calibration experiments illustrate characteristics of the instrument, and field tests show ...

Extreme rainfall intensities

Theoretical and Applied Climatology, 1984
Statistics of the total time, in minutes, that extreme rainfall rates are exceeded were computed from weighing raingage records at stations in several rainfall regimes. The results are presented on maps, frequency diagrams and as analytical expressions. Measures of areal variability were calculated from data at seven stations within an 8 km2 area.
