Book Manual on Estimation of Probable Maximum Precipitation  PMP

Download or read book Manual on Estimation of Probable Maximum Precipitation PMP written by World Meteorological Organization and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The manual describes procedure for estimating the maximum probable precipitation and the maximum probable flood. This is the third revised version. The first and second editions of this manual were published in 1973 and 1986, respectively. The current edition keeps a majority of the content from the second edition. Newly added content in this third edition primarily results from experiences, since 1986, in directly estimating PMP for the requirements of a given project in a design watershed on probable maximum flood (PMF) in China, the United States of America, Australia and India.--Publisher's description.

Book Generalized Estimates of Probable Maximum Precipitation for the United States West of the 105th Meridian for Areas to 400 Square Miles and Durations to 24 Hours

Download or read book Generalized Estimates of Probable Maximum Precipitation for the United States West of the 105th Meridian for Areas to 400 Square Miles and Durations to 24 Hours written by United States. Weather Bureau and published by . This book was released on 1960 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Generalized estimates of probable maximum precipitation have been available for the United States east of the 105th meridian for several years. The need for similar data for the planning and design requirements of the Soil Conservation Service in the region west of the 105th meridian led that agency to cooperate with estimates for that area. This report presents generalized estimates of probable maximum precipitation for areas from a point to 400 square miles and for durations up to 24 hours.

Book Probable Maximum Thunderstorm Precipitation Estimates  Southwest States

Download or read book Probable Maximum Thunderstorm Precipitation Estimates Southwest States written by John T. Riedel and published by . This book was released on 1972 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This study of probable maximum precipitation (PMP) from local thunderstorms for the Southwest United States will be published together with general storm PMP estimates covering this region. General storm PMP estimates are the subject of a current study in the Hydrometeorological Branch and will not be in a form for publication until late in 1974 or early 1975. In the meantime, the estimates of this report can be used for small drainages. In the more orographic regions, the general storm PMP values might exceed the thunderstorm PMP for 6 hours for basins as small as 200 square miles in area"--Page ii

Book Floods in a Changing Climate

    Book Details:
  • Author : Ramesh S. V. Teegavarapu
  • Publisher : Cambridge University Press
  • Release : 2012-11-22
  • ISBN : 1139851659
  • Pages : 289 pages

Download or read book Floods in a Changing Climate written by Ramesh S. V. Teegavarapu and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2012-11-22 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Measurement, analysis and modeling of extreme precipitation events linked to floods is vital in understanding changing climate impacts and variability. This book provides methods for assessment of the trends in these events and their impacts. It also provides a basis to develop procedures and guidelines for climate-adaptive hydrologic engineering. Academic researchers in the fields of hydrology, climate change, meteorology, environmental policy and risk assessment, and professionals and policy-makers working in hazard mitigation, water resources engineering and climate adaptation will find this an invaluable resource. This volume is the first in a collection of four books on flood disaster management theory and practice within the context of anthropogenic climate change. The others are: Floods in a Changing Climate: Hydrological Modeling by P. P. Mujumdar and D. Nagesh Kumar, Floods in a Changing Climate: Inundation Modeling by Giuliano Di Baldassarre and Floods in a Changing Climate: Risk Management by Slodoban Simonović.
