    • Spatial extreme model for rainfall depth: application to the estimation of IDF curves in the Basque country
    Authors: Mínguez, R.; Herrera, S.;  Advisor: -;  Co-Author: - (2023)

    Intensity-duration-frequency (IDF) curves are commonly used in engineering practice for the hydraulic design of flood protection infrastructures and flood risk management. IDF curves are simple functions between the rainfall intensity, the timescale at which the rainfall process is studied, and the return period. This work proposes and tests a new methodological framework for the spatial analysis of extreme rainfall depth at different timescales, taking advantage of two different precipitation datasets: local observational and gridded products. On the one hand, the proposed method overcomes or reduces known issues related to observational datasets (missing data and short temporal cove...
