Observed Annual Maximum Sub-Daily Precipitation from the Belgian Hydro-Meteorological Network (1967-2004) and Uccle (1898-2007)

We present annual maximum precipitation data from 10-min pluviograph stations of the Royal Meteorological Institute of Belgium. This includes the 110-year time series (1898-2007) of Uccle, Brussels (Demarée, 2003), and 17 other pluviograph series, but for a much shorter period (1967-2004). Some of these series display long periods with missing data, whereas the Uccle series is complete. All the series were recorded with a Hellmann-Fuess pluviograph. We constructed annual maximum d -hourly precipitation for rainfall durations d = 10min, 20min, 30min, 1h, 2h, 3h, 6h, 12h, 24h, 48h, and 72h. The... Mehr ...

We present annual maximum precipitation data from 10-min pluviograph stations of the Royal Meteorological Institute of Belgium. This includes the 110-year time series (1898-2007) of Uccle, Brussels (Demarée, 2003), and 17 other pluviograph series, but for a much shorter period (1967-2004). Some of these series display long periods with missing data, whereas the Uccle series is complete. All the series were recorded with a Hellmann-Fuess pluviograph. We constructed annual maximum d -hourly precipitation for rainfall durations d = 10min, 20min, 30min, 1h, 2h, 3h, 6h, 12h, 24h, 48h, and 72h. The annual maximum data was analysed in Vannitsem & Naveau (2007), Van de Vyver (2012; 2015a,b; 2018), and in Van de Vyver et al. (2021). The files include: "AM.PP.BELGIUM.RData": for each of the 18 stations, the annual maximum rainfall depths (mm) are listed in a matrix (rows: year, columns: rainfall duration). The data is also accompanied by the geographic coordinates (longitude/latitude/altitude). "MAP.STATIONS.pdf": elevation map (m) of Belgium, together with the location of the 10-min pluviograph stations. "INFO.STATIONS.pdf": table with the geographic coordinates (longitude/latitude/altitude). References Demarée, G.
