Summary

The Florida Flood Hub for Applied Research and Innovation and the U.S. Geological Survey have developed projected future change factors for precipitation depth-duration-frequency (DDF) curves at 242 NOAA Atlas 14 stations in Florida. The change factors were computed as the ratio of projected future to historical extreme-precipitation depths fitted to extreme-precipitation data from downscaled climate datasets using a constrained maximum likelihood (CML) approach as described in https://doi.org/10.3133/sir20225093. The change factors correspond to the period 2020-59 (centered in the year 2040) as compared to the 1966-2005 historical period. A Microsoft Excel workbook is provided which tabulates quantiles of change factors derived from [...]

Purpose

The primary purpose of this table is to provide quantiles for 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 Florida Flood Hub for Applied Research and Innovation.
