A dataset of gridded precipitation intensity-duration-frequency curves in Qinghai-Tibet Plateau by Zhihui Ren, Yan-Fang Sang, Peng Cui, Fei Chen, Deliang Chen

“…The generalized extreme value distribution is chosen to fit the annual maximum precipitation samples at 203 weather stations, based on which the at-site IDF curves are estimated; then, principal component analysis is done to identify the southeast-northwest spatial pattern of at-site IDF curves, and its first principal component gives a 96% explained variance; finally, spatial interpolation is done to estimate gridded IDF curves by using the random forest model with geographical and climatic variables as predictors. The dataset provides precipitation information within 1, 2, 3, 6, 12, 24 hours and 5, 10, 20, 50,100 return years, with a 1/30° spatial resolution. …”
