Spatiotemporal Changes and Frequency Analysis of Multiday Extreme Precipitation in the Huai River Basin during 1960 to 2014 by Yixing Yin, Xin Pan, Xiuqin Yang, Xiaojun Wang, Guojie Wang, Shanlei Sun

“…The results indicate (1) PX5D and PX10D indices have a weak upward trend in HRB, and the weak upward trend may be due to the significant downward trend in the 21st century, (2) the multiday (5-day and 10-day) extreme precipitation is closely associated with flood/drought disasters in the HRB, and (3) for stations of nonstationary changes with significant upward trend after the abrupt change, if the whole extreme precipitation series are used for frequency analysis, the risk of future floods will be underestimated, and this effect is more pronounced for longer return periods.…”

Analysis of Extreme Precipitation Events in Ganjiang River Basin Since the Second Half of the 20th Century by ZOU Xiongyuan, LIU Yanping, WAN Dan, WU Xia, ZHENG Kang, ZHAO Junkai

“…Under the background of global warming,the frequency of local extreme precipitation events increases gradually.This paper selects six extreme precipitation indexes such the extreme precipitation threshold (EPT),extreme precipitation (R95),extreme precipitation days (RD95),extreme precipitation intensity (RI95),maximum precipitation for five consecutive days (RX5day) and maximum precipitation for one day (RX1day),and analyzes the extreme precipitation events in Ganjiang River Basin from 1964 to 2013 by percentile threshold method,M-K trend analysis method,sliding t test method and Kriging spatial interpolation method.The results show that:①The extreme precipitation index of most stations in Ganjiang River Basin shows non-significant upward trend;②The mutation time of extreme precipitation index of each station is mostly concentrated in the 1980s and 1990s,and a few stations have significant mutation (α=0.01);③Except for RD95,all the extreme precipitation indexes decrease from east to west,on the contrary,RD95 decreases from west to east.The research results can provide reference for flood control,disaster reduction and water resources development and utilization in Ganjiang River Basin.…”
