TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provide a critical review of the current state-of-the-art methods for assessing the impacts of climate change on precipitation at the urban catchment scale.

TL;DR: In this paper, a pluvial flood risk assessment framework is presented to identify and assess adaptation options in the urban context by incorporating climate change impact assessment, flood inundation modeling, economic tool, and risk assessment, and a step-by-step process for costbenefit assessment of climate change adaptation measures.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors contrast traditional views with broader perspectives that are emerging from an improved understanding of the climatic context of floods, and they come to the following conclusions: (1) extending the traditional system boundaries (local catchment, recent decades, hydrological/hydraulic processes) opens up exciting possibilities for better understanding and improved tools for flood risk assessment and management.

TL;DR: There are still many limitations in understanding of how to describe precipitation patterns in a changing climate in order to design and operate urban drainage infrastructure, and climate change may well be the driver that ensures that changes in urban drainage paradigms are identified and suitable solutions implemented.

TL;DR: In this paper, a regional model for estimation of extreme rainfall characteristics in Denmark has been updated with data from the augmented rain database 1 January 1997-1 August 2005, corresponding to almost twice the amount of data used in the previous study (1 January 1979-1 January 1997).
