  • 摘要:Understanding changes in extreme hourly precipitation is critical to urban planners for building more sustainable and resilient cities. In this study, we use satellite nighttime light data, urban land area data, population, and economic data to objectively classify urban and rural stations. Based on the hourly precipitation data from national meteorological stations in 1974–2020 and from regional automatic weather stations in 2005–2020 in Shenyang (China), the spatio-temporal distribution characteristics of the thresholds, maximums, intensities, and frequencies of extreme hourly precipitation (ExHP) in urban and rural areas are analyzed and compared. The results show that the large-value centers of ExHP thresholds, maximums, and intensities are mainly concentrated in urban areas. Both the frequency and intensity of ExHP at urban stations are obviously larger than those at rural stations, and the peaks mainly appear at night for stations of both two types. From 1974 to 2020, the average frequency and intensity of ExHP at urban stations both show increasing trends, with the increasing rate being much higher than those at rural stations. In terms of temporal variation, precipitation events of the abrupt type are the most frequent, accounting for 48.6% of the total, followed by the growing type (42.7%) and continuous type (8.7%). ExHP events of the abrupt type are mostly concentrated in Kangping County and Faku County of Northern Shenyang, but rarely occur in Xinmin City. ExHP events of the growing type are mainly found in Xinmin City and the municipal district of Shenyang. For urban stations, the ExHP frequency decreases in the early stage of urbanization, while increasing evidently during the rapid urbanization stage. However, the situation is just the opposite for rural stations. This indicates that the rapid urbanization in Shenyang has a certain impact on the increase in ExHP.
