This contribution presents a new model for the prediction of the 1-minute integrated Complementary Cumulative Distribution Function (CCDF) of the rain rate, P(R)1, valid for tropical and equatorial regions (specifically, latitudes ranging from 35°S to 35°N). The proposed model inherits its analytica...
