Abstract
A significant amount of information on regional rainfall characteristics is available nowadays, allowing its use in hydrological applications. This article is motivated by the availability of regional studies regarding maximum daily rainfall and intensity–duration–frequency curves that can be coupled with the design storm concept for urban hydrology studies. This is accomplished through a convenient index describing temporal variability of rainfall. More precisely, a methodology for regionalising the two parameters (i0, φ) of the two-parameter gamma design storm (G2P) is developed herein. A three-step methodology is proposed for obtaining the two parameters (i0, φ) for a given location. The results obtained in a case study show coherence with previous studies concerning maximum rainfall statistics.
期刊介绍:
Hydrology Research provides international coverage on all aspects of hydrology in its widest sense, and welcomes the submission of papers from across the subject. While emphasis is placed on studies of the hydrological cycle, the Journal also covers the physics and chemistry of water. Hydrology Research is intended to be a link between basic hydrological research and the practical application of scientific results within the broad field of water management.
