Rainfall event analysis underpins the design and optimisation of stormwater management systems by characterising the temporal and spatial patterns of precipitation that drive surface runoff. Through ...

High-resolution precipitation data analysis has emerged as a critical field for understanding fine-scale hydrometeorological processes, extreme event attribution and climate change impacts. By ...

A critical federal analysis of extreme rainfall is vastly underestimating the chances of flood events, with grave implications for everything from new roads and bridges to the rising cost of flood ...

Warm overnight minimum temperatures set July records, impacting more than 55 million people across the eastern states. In July, 1,434 flash flood warnings—the second-highest July total in 40 years—and ...

A NASA rainfall analysis estimated the amount of rainfall generated by Hurricane Matthew when it moved over the Carolinas. Hurricane Matthew dropped a lot of rain, caused flooding and deaths in the ...

Attribution researches the influence of climate change on local weather and impacts. We issues alerts in many instances when the Climate Shift Index identifies a notable extreme weather event around ...

The past century of human-induced warming has increased rainfall variability over 75% of the Earth's land area—particularly over Australia, Europe and eastern North America, new research shows. The ...

American cities are poised to spend billions of dollars to improve their water systems under the federal infrastructure bill, the largest water investment in the nation's history. Those new sewers and ...
