Occurrence of intense rainfall

Annales des Télécommunications, 1977
In order to estimate variability, durations, and multiple occurrences of rainfalls at rates of over 150 mm/h, a mathematical expression is fitted to excessive shortduration rainfall data for the United States. Geographical distributions of average durations and depths of intense rainfall are found to be surprisingly uniform.

On Acoustic Monitoring of Rainfall Intensity

2025 33rd European Signal Processing Conference (EUSIPCO)
Audio-based environmental monitoring is gaining ever-increasing interest in the last decades facilitating a wide range of applications. An emerging task concerns the automatic estimation of rainfall intensity based on the respective acoustic activity.

Rainfall Intensities for Southeastern Arizona

Journal of Irrigation and Drainage Engineering, 1988
Small watershed storm runoff in the southwestern United States is dominated by intense, short-duration convective rains of limited areal extent. Most commonly, flood peak estimates are based on rainfall predictions found in the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Atlas 2, a precipitation-frequency atlas for the Western United States.

Rainfall Intensities in Havana

Journal AWWA, 1948
the design of water works, data on rainfall intensities for periods of time of 30 minutes or less are not as important as in sewage plant construction, but durations of one or more hours come within the time of concentration encountered in practice in small drainage areas.

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.

A Statistical Description of Intense Rainfall

Bell System Technical Journal, 1969
This paper contains a statistical summary of the 14,000,000 measurements taken during 27 rainfalls in a six-month period in 1967 from a 96-station, rapid-response rain guage network spread over a rectangular area 13 by 14 kilometers centered near Crawford Hill, New Jersey.

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 ...

Spatial correlation coefficients of rainfall intensity inferred from statistics of rainfall intensity and rain attenuation

Annales des Télécommunications, 1986
On the basis of the reliable statistics of rainfall rate and rainfall attenuation for 8 localities in Europe, the spatial correlation coefficient of point rainfall intensity was inferred for each locality from the cumulative distributions of attenuation and rainfall intensity by inversely applying the modified Morita and Higuti rainfall attenuation ...

Rainfall intensity prediction by a spatial-temporal ensemble

2008 IEEE International Joint Conference on Neural Networks (IEEE World Congress on Computational Intelligence), 2008
Accurate rainfall intensity nowcasting has many applications such as flash flood defense and sewer management. Conventional computational intelligence tools do not take into account temporal information, and the series of rainfall is treated as continuous time series. Unfortunately, rainfall intensity is not a continuous time series as it has different
