## Abstract This work is an assessment of frequency of extreme values (EVs) of daily rainfall in the city of Sao Paulo, Brazil, over the period 1933โ2005, based on the peaksโoverโthreshold (POT) and Generalized Pareto Distribution (GPD) approach. Usually, a GPD model is fitted to a sample of POT va

## Abstract The objective of this paper is to identify the spatial distribution patterns of heavy rainfall in the Valencia region, Spain. Rainfall in this area reaches one of the highest intensity levels in the Mediterranean, with daily precipitation values above 800 mm. Although high intensities c
## Abstract A comprehensive analysis of the extreme rainfalls in Tuscany, Italy, is carried out with the aim of understanding and quantifying the uncertainties connected with the estimation of the design storms, which is very important for a sound basin management at urban or larger scales. The his
## Abstract Multiโday rainfall events are an important cause of recent severe flooding in the UK, and any change in the magnitude of such events may have severe impacts upon urban structures such as dams, urban drainage systems and flood defences and cause failures to occur. Regional pooling of 1โ,
## Abstract In the framework of regional frequency analysis of annual maximum of rainfall depth for short duration storms, the aim of this work is to find expressions of the scale factor of a nonโdimensional regional probability distribution, that is the index rainfall. Over a territory of about 22
