  • 摘要:Intensity-Duration-Frequency (IDF) curve is an essential hydrologic tool used for the design of hydraulic infrastructure. In a changing climate scenario, the assumption of a static return period of precipitation extremes is not valid; the under-estimation of rainfall intensity values may lead to the failure of critical infrastructure. This paper is focused on identifying the extent of non-stationary behaviour at different locations in Kerala. The annual maxima rainfall data prepared from daily time series was idealized into non-stationary Generalized Extreme Value (GEV) distributions, with time-varying parameters after rainfall disaggregation operation. Non-stationary rainfall intensities were estimated using different non-stationary models, and the best model was identified using Akaike Information Criteria (AIC). From the analysis using station-wise data, it was found that districts including Palakkad, Malappuram, Idukki and Pathanamthitta were experiencing significant non-stationarity in extreme precipitation events. Non-stationary rainfall extremes were concentrated at Eastern regions of Kerala compared to coastal and midlands of Kerala.
