Geração de curvas IDFs para cenários projetados na cidade de Porto Alegre/RS

Abstract

The increase in the frequency of extreme events associated with climate change can modify the existing IDF curves. The methodology for defining IDF curves considering future scenarios was to calibrate the stochastic model to generate daily synthetic precipitation series based on observed data from the city of Porto Alegre and to generate perturbed synthetic series from six MCGs, three scenarios A1B, A2 and B1 for the periods 2046 to 2065 and 2080 to 2099. In the elaboration of the IDFs, the daily synthetic data were disaggregated, both for the baseline (1974 to 2014) and for the projected scenarios, using the disaggregation relationships of the current IDF of Porto Alegre. The results obtained after the calibration indicated that the stochastic model used was efficient in the local data representation. The results for the projections in the first period indicate that the simulations of the models are reasonably applicable, suggesting the use of the current IDF curve with a 10 to 20% increase in the design of hydraulic works. Already in the second projection period due to the great variability in the results found for the different models, there is no confidence in the applicability of these projections
