On the Robustness of Annual Daily Precipitation Maxima Estimates Over Monsoon Asia

Abstract: Understanding precipitation extremes over Monsoon Asia is vital for water resource management and hazard mitigation, but there are many gaps and uncertainties in observations in this region. To better understand observational uncertainties, this study uses a high-resolution validation dataset to assess the consistency of the representation of annual daily precipitation maxima (Rx1day) over land in 13 observational datasets from the Frequent Rainfall Observations on Grids (FROGS) database. The FROGS datasets ar… Show more

“…Subsequently, the quantiles related to higher precipitation amounts from all datasets increasingly diverge from each other, with maximum variance observed in the highest quantiles (greater than the 99th percentile). This inter-comparison of seasonal climatologies in daily precipitation is in line with the previous regional studies on mean (Juneng et al, 2016;Tangang et al, 2020) or extreme precipitation (Nguyen et al, 2020), highlighting the substantial uncertainties among different observations over the region.…”

“…Note that we did not select the newest version of APHRODITE (i.e., V1901) due to its shorter time period (1998)(1999)(2000)(2001)(2002)(2003)(2004)(2005) compared to its predecessor (i.e., V1101; 1951-2007) utilized here. In addition, Nguyen et al (2020) also noted the limited difference between APHRODITE V1901 and V1101 in the representation of extremes, which gives further confidence in using the V1101 version here.…”

“…In the U.S., Europe, and Central America, IMERGlate means were 14 to 34% too large, while CHIRP2 means were within -2 to 3 percent (Table 2). Recent evaluations of IMERG (Nguyen et al 2020) indicate that this may relate to the overestimation of the wettest precipitation events.…”
