摘要

Applied Weather Associates has completed a site-specific probable maximumrnprecipitation (PMP) for the Cherry Creek drainage basin south of Denver, Colorado. Thisrnproject was initiated by concern about the magnitude of the probable maximum flood (PMF)rncalculated by the US Army Corps of Engineers using a site-specific PMP study provided by thernNational Weather Service. The site-specific PMP study was supported by the Colorado WaterrnConservation Board (CWCB) of the Colorado Department of Natural Resources and four localrncommunities.rnA comprehensive study has been completed that included historically accepted methodsrnand techniques of extreme storm identification, maximization and transpositioning. Ofrnparticular significance is the effect of the Palmer Divide. Sensitivity analyses were completedrnfor key meteorological parameters to quantify the influence of each parameter on the PMPrncomputations. The ESRI ArcView GIS was used extensively for storm analyses and inrnparticular, for terrain slope and aspect evaluations.rnTechniques used by the National Weather Service (NWS) in their site-specific PMPrnstudy for Cherry Creek were evaluated and some were found to be inappropriate for the sitespecificrncharacteristics of the Cherry Creek basin. The NWS approach is to start with therngeneralized HMR results and apply modifications to make the values site-specific. The currentrnstudy used the approach of storm maximization and transposition to the basin location torncompute site-specific PMP values for the Cherry Creek basin.rnThree factors appear to primarily account for the differences between the NWS studyrnand the current study. These are moisture depletion by upwind barriers, area size adjustmentsrnand orographic adjustments.rnThis study computed a 72-hour site-specific basin average PMP value for the 386 squarernmile Cherry Creek basin of 15.4 inches. Compared with the NWS site-specific basin averagernvalue of 24.7 inches, the site-specific PMP study provides a 38% reduction in the basin averagernPMP value.
