Trends in extreme precipitation events (SW Hungary) based on a high-density monitoring network
Climate change is commonly associated with extreme weather phenomena. Extreme weather patterns may bring prolonged drought periods, more intense runoff and increased severity of floods.

Study on hydrodynamic characteristics and influence factors of asphalt pavement runoff
A hydrodynamic model is developed for rainfall–runoff on asphalt pavement using two-dimensional shallow water equations. A simple yet precise expression is presented to compute flow velocity in order to alleviate the problems associated with numerical ...

Effect of Antecedent Rainfall Patterns on Rainfall-Induced Slope Failure [PDF]
Rainfall-induced slope failure occurs in many parts of the world, especially in the tropics. Many rainfall-induced slope failures have been attributed to antecedent rainfalls. Although it has been identified as a cause of rainfall-induced slope failure, the pattern or distribution of the antecedent rainfall has not received adequate attention.

Analyzing rainfall patterns and pricing rainfall insurance using copula [PDF]
This paper proposes analyzing monthly rainfall patterns using copula and pricing related rainfall insurance using it. We analyze 30-year monthly precipitation data for 9 Korean cities between June and September using copula showing so that it can effectively generate realistic monthly rainfall patterns.

The Effect of Rainfall Patterns on the Mechanisms of Shallow Slope Failure
- This paper examines how rainfall patterns affect the mechanisms of shallow slope failure. Numerical modelling, utilising the commercial software SVFlux and SVSlope, was carried out for a coupled analysis of rainfall-induced slope seepage and ...

Joint frequency analysis of rainfall and precipitation concentration index (PCI) at Birjand and Tabas meteorological stations, South Khorasan Province, Iran [PDF]
In this study, copula functions and precipitation concentration index were used for the joint frequency analysis of the conditional probability of rainfall-rainfall and PCI-PCI at Birjand and Tabas meteorological stations in eastern Iran.
