Abstract

The assessment of non-stationarity in the rainfall process is still a major research topic in the field of applied hydrology. The water cycle is affected by several characteristics of this process: rainfall volume, wet weather duration, their mutual association, and the annual number of events. The method used to sample rainfall variables from the time series may or may not suitably account for their variability. Herein, the rainfall process is analyzed using a bivariate event-based approach, with reference to two rainfall time series recorded at short time steps in different Italian climates. Trends are also estimated.
Keywords: rainfall time series; rainfall volume; wet weather duration; variable association; bivariate trend analysis; Italian climates rainfall time series; rainfall volume; wet weather duration; variable association; bivariate trend analysis; Italian climates
