Hello People,

I am doing a review for a coworker of mine and he asked me to look at possible alternative methods of estimating future extreme precipitation events. Currently, we are comparing the following methods; historical method (old data extrapolated into the future), downscaled trends from Environment Canada, a IDF_CC tool from the University of Waterloo, and Clausius-clapeyron scaling (based on estimated increases in atmospheric moisture-holding capacity).

Are there any other methods in the works or that other industries/countries use to project the data into the future considering climate change?

Thanks in advanced!

Regards,

A.S.
