It was the culmination of many years of investigation and was based all of the previous work on precipitation- frequency studies until that time. It also replaced U.S. Weather Bureau Technical Paper No. 40 for the eleven western states. The states/volumes are: 1 Montana 2 Wyoming 3 Colorado 4 New Mexico 5 Idaho 6 Utah 7 Nevada 8 Arizona 9 Washington 10 Oregon 11 California Each volume is organized into three parts. The first section discusses the historical background, procedures, and methods used in preparing the maps and how to interpret and use them. The second discusses ideas that are applicable only to the particular U.S. state considered in that volume. Included in this section are methods (monograms and equations) useful for estimating precipitation-frequency values for durations other than 6 and 24 hours. The last part of the atlas presents isopluvial maps for the 6 and 24 hour durations for return periods of 2, 5, 10, 25, 50, and 100 years. To provide precipitation frequency information in the climatologically diverse western United States, where average precipitation amounts vary widely. historicalArchive DOC/NOAA/NESDIS/NCEI > National Centers for Environmental Information, NESDIS, NOAA, U.S. Department of Commerce Customer Engagement Branch 1-828-271-4800 1-828-271-4876 151 Patton Avenue Veach-Baley Federal Building, Room 468 Asheville NC 28801-5001 USA ncei.orders@noaa.gov https://www.ncei.noaa.gov HTTPS Web Browser NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI) NCEI home page with information, data access and contact information. information 8:00 - 6:00 Eastern pointOfContact notPlanned https://www1.ncdc.noaa.gov/pub/data/metadata/images/C00238.jpg Publication Cover Earth Science > Atmosphere > Precipitation > Precipitation Anomalies Earth Science > Atmosphere > Precipitation > Precipitation Amount Earth Science > Atmosphere > Precipitation > Liquid Precipitation > Rain > Freezing Rain Earth Science > Atmosphere > Precipitation > Solid Precipitation > Hail Earth Science > Atmosphere > Precipitation > Liquid Precipitation > Rain Earth Science > Atmosphere > Precipitation > Solid Precipitation > Ice Pellets > Sleet Earth Science > Atmosphere > Precipitation > Solid Precipitation > Snow theme Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Science Keywords 2018 revision Version 8.6 Global Change Data Center, Science and Exploration Directorate, Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) https://earthdata.nasa.gov/about/gcmd/global-change-master-directory-gcmd-keywords HTTPS Web Browser Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Keywords The information provided on this page seeks to define how the GCMD Keywords are structured, used and accessed.
