Abstract: The conventional method of univariate flood frequency analysis based solely on peak flow (Q) overlooks the influence of other characteristic flood variables, such as the accumulated volume (V) of the flood and the duration ...

Abstract: The present study investigates the spatiotemporal variabilities of long-term (1950–2016) rainfall and regional groundwater levels for annual and seasonal periods over the west coast of India. The study area is a narrow ...

Abstract: The effective management of flood risk and urban drainage design hinges on a comprehensive understanding and accurate modeling of extreme rainfall variations, particularly in vulnerable areas. The study proposes to model ...

Abstract: Meteorological droughts abetted by hot events could instigate an agricultural drought that eventually affects crop yield. Different types of droughts may coexist or occur in succession. A single index based on one particular ...

Abstract: This work reports climate change signals and long-term trend analysis of climate variables, meteorological drought, and extreme climate indexes over the tropical state of Kerala in India. The trend analysis reveals ...

Abstract: This study aims to construct the multiple time-scale joint distributions of drought duration and severity using two-dimensional copulas and compare the drought characteristics in India’s two contrasting climate regions: ...

Abstract: The present study focuses on the dependence modeling of hydroclimatic variables such as the El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) index, precipitation, tidal height, and groundwater level (GWL) in humid tropical coastal ...
