Rainfall Frequency Analysis to Estimate Probable Maximum Precipitation Using Stochastic Storm Transposition With Radar–Rain Gauge Data in Japan

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Reliable design precipitation estimation is vital for flood risk management and infrastructure design. In Japan, the Depth‐Area‐Duration (DAD) method is widely used for operational Probable Maximum Precipitation (PMP) estimation, but it lacks a probabilistic link to rainfall frequency and does not yield the spatiotemporal rainfall fields ...

Assessment of the impacts of Super Typhoon Saola and the record-breaking rainstorm due to the remnant of Severe Typhoon Haikui on Hong Kong in September 2023

Tropical Cyclone Research and Review
In early September 2023, Hong Kong was severely impacted by the ferocious strike of Super Typhoon Saola on 1–2 September and the phenomenal rainstorm on 7–8 September triggered by the remnant of TC Haikui. Given the rarity of these two successive extreme

“Negative feedback” in tropical rainstorms

Eos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1973
Scientists from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and the Soviet Union have made unique oceanographic measurements that show that rainstorms in the tropics sometimes put a damper on their own activity.Two NOAA scientists and a meteorologist from the USSR Hydrometeorological Service reported recently that measurements they made last ...

Lack of Hydraulic Acclimation in Response to Multiple Droughts and Recovery

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 9, Page 6931-6943, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Human‐caused climate change is expected to bring more frequent and extended droughts with shorter wet periods of relief in between for many regions of the world. Critical knowledge gaps remain around the extent to which tree species can acclimate physiologically to repeated droughts.

GIS‐AHP‐Based Spatial Analysis of Flood Susceptibility: A Case Study of Dera Ismail Khan, Pakistan

Engineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 8, August 2026.
A combined GIS‐AHP method maps flood risk in the D.I. Khan area and identifies prevailing high‐risk areas and verifies findings with historical information. The research assists in effective flood management, risk‐based planning, as well as enhanced resilience in fast urbanizing areas. ABSTRACT Floods rank among the world's most deadly hazards and have

Morphodynamic adjustment in a watershed affected by megafires: Deadman River, British Columbia, Canada

Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 8, August 2026.
The Deadman River watershed (British Columbia, Canada) was severely impacted by the Sparks Lake Fire in 2021. Timelapse photogrammetry reveals sharp post‐fire channel widening and increase in migration rate. Through multispectral remote‐sensing analysis, these morphodynamic changes are related to burn severity affecting the watershed.

Potential Warming‐Induced Changes in Stream Water Sources Between Proglacial and Non‐Glacial Streams, South‐Central Alaska

Hydrological Processes, Volume 40, Issue 8, August 2026.
Land cover and elevation are shown to influence the proportion of stream source waters across glacial and non‐glacial streams. Groundwater makes up a large proportion of both early season and late season flow in most glacial and non‐glacial streams, while the timing of snow and ice melt is driven by the presence or absence of a glacier within the ...
