Magnitude and frequency of floods
C R C Critical Reviews in Environmental Control, 1976Estimation of the 100-year flood at hundreds of thousands of sites will be required for implementation of the Federal Flood Insurance Act. Other aspects of planning and drainage design require innumerable calculations of floods and their frequency. Modern advances in statistical theory have recently been applied to various aspects of these problems ...

The recurring flooding causes loss of life and damage to buildings and other structures, including bridges, sewerage systems, roadways and canals. It also frequently damages power transmission and sometimes power generation, which then has knock-on effects caused by the loss of power.

The probability mass function of peak streamflow from a given catchment is derived from the density functions for climatic and catchment variables by using the functional relationships provided by the kinematic wave method of hydrograph forecasting. The exceedance probability for a flood peak of given magnitude is then related to the annual exceedance ...

Flood Frequency Analysis for the 1988 Truro Floods
Water and Environment Journal, 1990ABSTRACTIn January 1988 the city of Truro experienced a severe flood from the River Kenwyn. The return period of this event was initially estimated at 350 years using the methodology recommended in the Flood Studies Report1. In October of the same year a second flood, of even greater magnitude, occurred. The subsequent investigations employed a variety

Flood Frequency Analysis for Sicily, Italy
Journal of Hydrologic Engineering, 2006In this paper a regional flood frequency analysis based on the two-component extreme value TCEV distribution is developed using flood data recorded in Sicily. The hierarchical approach, characterized by three investigation levels for estimating the parameters of the theoretical distribution, is discussed first.
