Examining the future changes in the amount and rate of occurrence of short duration rainfall Name Institution Abstract The understanding of amount and rate of occurrence of short duration rainfall relationships is key in water engineering applications. The occurrence of extreme rainfall amounts at an increasing rate in the global scale has raised concerns recently. Most of the research conducted shows that much of the increases occur particularly in the short duration rainfall which majorly lasts for about an hour or so. This mainly increases the rate occurrence of flash floods. Thus, this study aims at examining the various evidence that suggests the occurrence of short duration rainfall...
