Métodos regionales para estimar la probabilidad de frequencia de crecidas
Ingeniería del agua, 1998 Este trabajo propone métodos regionales de momentos ponderados por probabilidad y de máxima verosimilitud, para obtener una curva de frecuencia de crecidas en una región. A diferencia de los métodos convencionales, el método propuesto de máxima verosimilitud, ajusta una función de distribución a cada lugar, cuyos parámetros en cada sitio son función de
