The 15-year return-period daily P intensity according to (a) the gauge observations, (b) the PPDIST dataset, (c) the ERA5 reanalysis, and (d) the IMERG satellite product. IMERG has data gaps at high latitudes (>60°N/S) precluding the calculation of the 15-year return-period daily P intensity. Supplement Fig. S3 presents an equivalent figure for the 15-year return-period 3-hourly P intensity. The other PPDIST P intensity indices can be viewed by accessing the dataset.
