## Abstract The aim of this study is to carry out two objective classifications concerning the occurrence of episodes of heavy rainfall in Southern Portugal. The first one seeks to define the main spatial distribution patterns associated with abundant rainfall days in this region. Using a 15βyear (
Regression models are developed to predict point rainfall statistics, with potential application to downscaling general circulation model (GCM) output for future climates. The models can be used to predict the mean daily rainfall amount and the proportion of dry days for each calendar month at any s
