Aiming at the lack of sub-daily precipitation data in Qinghai-Tibet Plateau (QTP), this study established a method to quantify the temporal scaling characteristic of sub-daily precipitation and the associated uncertainty, which leads to a set of functions with six key parameters. Importantly, the six parameters are found to be closely linked to geographical conditions, enabling a high-resolution gridded (1km×1km) parameters data set. This data set can be utilized to quantitatively describe the probabilistic distribution and extract key information about maximum precipitation duration (from 1 to 12 hour), which provides an effective way to estimate sub-daily precipitation and its uncertainty, as a necessary support for rainstorm-related natural disasters study in QTP.
