Zusammenfassung |
From a large data base of daily rainfall, several thousands of time series of annual maxima are extracted, each one having at least 100 years of data values. These time series are analysed focusing on their long-term properties including persistence and trends. The results are grouped by continent and time period. They allow drawing conclusions, which have some importance, given the ongoing and intensifying discussions about worsening of climate and amplification of extreme phenomena.
