Seasonal and Regional Differences in Extreme Rainfall Events and Their Contribution to the World’s Precipitation: GPM Observations

<div>Spatial distribution of largest (in size) extreme rainfall events over the globe. (a–c) The distribution of largest extreme rainfall events in each 1° × 1° box; (d) the actual geographical locations of largest extreme rainfall events. Color bar in (a)–(c) shows the number of extreme rainfall events. (d) The green color refers to the top 0.1% PFs, whereas magenta refers to the top 0.01% largest PFs.</div>
