The objective of this study is to contribute to the characterization of the rain hazard in the District of Abidjan. The available data are made up of daily rainfall from a historical station 'Abidjan airport' (1961-2014) and an academic network of rain gauges (21) progressively implemented in Abidjan since 2015. A descriptive analysis (date of occurrence, rainfall depth, mean wet days intensity and number of rainy days) on the Highest Cumulative Rainfall Periods (HCRP: 60 d) is conducted on the long-term station. The periods of highest risk of flooding during the long and short rainy seasons are characterized. The Experimental variograms of extreme rainfalls derived from the current network, allow to evaluate their extensions according to the rainy season. specialized PLUVIOMETRIE VARIATION JOURNALIERE PRECIPITATION VARIATION ANNUELLE PLUIE INONDATION METHODOLOGIE 1961 2014 CHANGEMENT CLIMATIQUE COTE D'IVOIRE ABIDJAN 062MECEAU Cudennec C. ed. edt IRD Grimaldi S. ed. edt IRD 385 259-265 2024 2199-899X Scientific Assembly of the International Association of Hydrological Sciences, 11., Montpellier (FRA), 2022/05/29-2022/06/03 https://www.documentation.ird.fr/hor/fdi:010090864 10.5194/piahs-385-259-2024 2199-899X [F B010090864] https://www.documentation.ird.fr/hor/fdi:010090864 https://horizon.documentation.ird.fr/exl-doc/pleins_textes/2024-07/010090864.pdf IRD - Base Horizon / Pleins textes 2024-06-07 2026-03-25 fdi:010090864 fre
