Abstract

Abstract A lot of different distribution functions have been proposed to represent the precipitation totals collected in k days, and in particular a transformed incomplete gamma distribution aimed to be the basis of the searched law (Formula 3.). This distribution contains as particular cases, or as limit-cases the distributions usually employed for the daily, weekly, monthly and annual precipitations. Periods even shorter than a day, as well as the intensity may be presented by the same law. The general validity of the proposed law is confirmed by applying it at the rainfall data coliected at the Observatory of Ghent.
