英文摘要 | Recent studies have focused on identifying the spatial coverage of heavy rainfall associated with tropical cyclones (TCs) and their remnants (TC-events) throughout the southwestern United States from eastern North Pacific storms. Yet little is known about the larger spatial contribution of these storms among extreme floods over the western United States. This paper examines the spatial and fractional contribution of 103 TC-events among annual maximum streamflow at 1,429 long-term U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) streamgages with at least 30 years of daily discharge data over the 1958-2010 water years. The highest fractional contributions to annual daily maxima by these storms (similar to 5-14%) are found in southern California, Arizona, southernmost Nevada and Utah, southern and western New Mexico, central Colorado, and Texas. While nearly 32% of the streamgages have at least one annual maximum that was generated by a TC-event, TC-events play a limited role in contributing to the upper tail of the flood peak distribution across the western United States. |
