Climatic characteristics of hourly extreme precipitation during the warm season in Chongqing
The study analyzed hourly extreme precipitation events in Chongqing and its six sub-regions from 2011 to 2021 during the warm season. Results showed uneven distribution of the 99.7th percentile hourly extreme precipitation threshold, with lower thresholds along the Yangtze River valley and higher th...

description | The study analyzed hourly extreme precipitation events in Chongqing and its six sub-regions from 2011 to 2021 during the warm season. Results showed uneven distribution of the 99.7th percentile hourly extreme precipitation threshold, with lower thresholds along the Yangtze River valley and higher thresholds in the Daba Mountains and Wuling Mountains. Both hourly extreme precipitation amount (HEPA) and intensity (HEPI) exhibited higher values in surrounding areas and lower values in the center, with the western, northeast, and southeastern regions experiencing the highest values. Spatial distribution of hourly extreme precipitation frequency varied, with higher frequencies in the northwestern and southern parts of Chongqing. Interannually, hourly extreme precipitation amount slightly increased, while intensity fluctuated. Monthly peak values for amount, frequency, and intensity occurred in July or August, and on a daily scale, the periods from 03:00 to 07:00 and 17:00 to 21: 00 exhibited higher values for amount and frequency, while the period from 11 :00 to 16:00 showed lower values. In summary, the study provided insights into the spatial and temporal patterns of hourly extreme precipitation events in Chongqing and its sub-regions during the warm season, highlighting variations in thresholds, distribution, and trends over the studied period. |
