Probable Maximum Precipitation and Snowmelt Criteria for Southeast Alaska

摘要

This study gives probable maximum precipitation (PMP) estimates for durations between 6 and 72 hours for area sizes between 10 and 400 sq mi for any location in Southeast Alaska (except for the extreme northwest section). In addition to all-season PMP, estimates are provided for the spring and early summer snowmelt season. This study also provides generalized estimates of snowpack and other snowmelt criteria including temperatures, dew points, and winds.
