Abstract

In this paper to estimate areal probable maximum precipitation (PMP) for 1000, 5000 and 10,000 km2 for 1-day duration over Tamil Nadu, three generalised charts depicting variation of areal PMP for these three areas have been prepared. The study showed that the areal PMP estlm1tes for 1000, 5000 and 10000 km2 over Tamil Nadu seems to vary between 48-32, 38-26 and 32-22 cm respectively for l-day duration .
