AbstractMaximum rainfall intensity-duration-frequency (IDF) relationship are commonly used for determining the design rainfall in water resource projects. As derived from the point precipitation, the IDF formula cannot be applied on ungauged areas. In Taiwan, the network of non-recording rain gauges has a higher density and better coverage than the recording rain gauges. This study tries to combine the rainfall characteristics in time and space abstracted from the recording and non-recording rain gauges to develop a regional IDF relationship for ungauged areas.
