A depth-duration-frequency model for analysis of extreme precipitation events, with application to past and projected future climates in Ireland

Key Points

• Extreme precipitation events are modeled to assess their frequency and intensity in changing climates, focusing specifically on Ireland.
• The depth-duration-frequency model provides insights into how precipitation patterns may shift, particularly under future climate scenarios.
• Modeling used historical data and projected climate conditions to evaluate the likelihood and severity of extreme weather events in Ireland.
• The findings highlight the need for infrastructure adaptation and planning based on extreme weather predictions, given the shifting climate.
