Summary

The South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD) and the U.S. Geological Survey have developed projected future change factors for precipitation depth-duration-frequency (DDF) curves at 174 NOAA Atlas 14 stations in central and south Florida. The change factors were computed as the ratio of projected future to historical extreme precipitation depths fitted to extreme precipitation data from various downscaled climate datasets using a constrained maximum likelihood (CML) approach. The change factors correspond to the period 2050-2089 (centered in the year 2070) as compared to the 1966-2005 historical period. A Microsoft Excel workbook is provided which tabulates change factors derived from the Analog Resampling and Statistical Scaling [...]

Purpose

The primary purpose of this table is to provide multiplicative change factors that can be applied to the official NOAA Atlas 14 depth-duration-frequency curves based on partial-duration series (PDS) to determine projected future extreme precipitation for events of a given duration and return period. This project is a cooperative effort between the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) and the South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD).
