Abstract or Introduction
An Intensity Duration Frequency (IDF) curve is a graphical representation that shows the relationship between rainfall intensity, duration, and frequency. This curve is developed to help in the design of stormwater management systems and infrastructure by providing information on the expected rainfall patterns in a specific location.
The IDF curve developed in Yirgalem town provides valuable insights into the rainfall characteristics of the area, such as the intensity of rainfall events, their duration, and the frequency at which they occur. By analyzing this curve, engineers and urban planners can make informed decisions about the design and capacity of drainage systems, flood control measures, and other infrastructure projects to mitigate the impacts of heavy rainfall events in the town.
Overall, the IDF curve developed for Yirgalem town plays a crucial role in enhancing the resilience of the town's infrastructure to extreme weather events, ultimately contributing to the sustainable development and safety of the community.
