Modelling the Rainfall Erosivity of the Rhone Region (Southeastern France) Associated with Climate Variability and Storminess

Figure 4

(a) Scatterplot between modelled (equation (1)) and actual ((R)USLE)-based rainfall erosivity. The black line is the interpolating line; the bold grey line denotes the 1 : 1 line; grey curves are 0.99 confidence limits of the interpolating line. (b) Monthly regime of severe convective events frequency estimated over 1957–2002 in Europe [58].
