Analyzing the Hydrological Disconnect Between Extreme Precipitation and River Discharge in Douala, Cameroon

2025-12-05

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>This study investigates the critical temporal disconnect between extreme rainfall and subsequent flood discharge in Douala, Cameroon, a rapidly urbanizing coastal city increasingly vulnerable to flooding. Using a 13-year dataset (2010–2023) that integrates CHIRPS precipitation data Funk et al. (2015) and ERA5-Land discharge data (Muñoz-Sabater et al. 2021), we applied Extreme Value Theo...
