Sub-hourly heavy precipitation events (SHHPs) frequently underlie major meteorological hazards, but their comprehensive analysis is still lacking in Portugal. A 71-weather-station dataset for 2000?2020 is used in this article to (1) diagnose SHHPs corres...

Rainfall events are known to be driven by various synoptic disturbances or dominant processes in the atmosphere. In spite of the diverse atmospheric contributions, the assumption of homogeneity is commonly adopted when a hydrological frequency analysis i...

Mediterranean regions are prone to heavy rainfall, flash floods, and erosion issues. Drop size distribution (DSD) is a key element for studying these phenomena through the hydrological variables which can be derived from it (rainfall rates and totals, ki...

This paper describes a trend analysis which has been performed in the annual frequency of extremely hot days (EHD) in Europe and the identification of synoptic patterns that contribute to the generation of extreme high temperature events. In order to do ...
