Abstract

Based on the hourly tabulations of rainfall for 99 observatory stations in India equipped with recording raingauges, return period values of 1-hour for 2, 5, 10 and 50 years have been computed and maps prepared.  The maps are presented and the important features of the 1-hour rainfall of India as seen from these maps are discussed.
