About the return period of a catastrophe [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2022 When a natural hazard event like an earthquake affects a region and generates a natural catastrophe (NatCat), the following questions arise: how often does such an event occur? What is its return period (RP)?

Water Resources Management, 2022 Abstract The design rainfall intensity and its return period of the combined interceptor sewer is an important factor affecting CSO occurrence. However, we often use the interceptor ratio (or interceptor multiple, n0) to design the interceptor sewer, and its equivalent design return period is often ignored.

An update on multivariate return periods in hydrology [PDF]
Proceedings of the International Association of Hydrological Sciences, 2016 Abstract. Many hydrological studies are devoted to the identification of events that are expected to occur on average within a certain time span. While this topic is well established in the univariate case, recent advances focus on a multivariate characterization of events based on copulas.
