Regional analysis of runoff thresholds behaviour in Southern Italy based on theoretically derived distributions [PDF]

open access: yesAdvances in Geosciences, 2011
The analysis of runoff thresholds and, more in general, the identification of main mechanisms of runoff generation controlling the flood frequency distribution is investigated, by means of theoretically derived flood frequency distributions, in the ...

Flood frequency analysis supported by the largest historical flood [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2014
The use of non-systematic flood data for statistical purposes depends on the reliability of the assessment of both flood magnitudes and their return period. The earliest known extreme flood year is usually the beginning of the historical record.

Flood frequency analysis of historical flood data under stationary and non-stationary modelling [PDF]

open access: yesHydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2015
Historical records are an important source of information on extreme and rare floods and fundamental to establish a reliable flood return frequency.

Comparative analysis of routed flood frequency for reservoirs in parallel incorporating bivariate flood frequency and reservoir operation [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Flood Risk Management, 2021
Flood frequency is commonly defined by natural flood characteristics such as flood peak, volume and duration. However, for floods at reservoir site, reservoir operation will significantly alter the natural flood process and flood frequency.

Influence of solar forcing, climate variability and modes of low-frequency atmospheric variability on summer floods in Switzerland [PDF]

open access: yesHydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2016
The higher frequency of severe flood events in Switzerland in recent decades has given fresh impetus to the study of flood patterns and their possible forcing mechanisms, particularly in mountain environments.

Flood frequency analysis of the Đetinja river [PDF]

open access: yesGlasnik Srpskog Geografskog Društva, 2010
Based on extreme water levels data, using the method of series, a forecast for protection of river has been accomplished, i.e. probable water level maximums of the Đetinja river at Šengolj were measured. High flows were analyzed with a probability from 0.

Dez Basin Flood Frequency Analysis [PDF]

open access: yesمهندسی منابع آب, 2009
In this research, from data of 26 hydrometric station records and l-moment approach, regional and stational flood frequency of Dez basin was analyzed. For identifying homogeneous regions, Ward hierarchical cluster method was used.

An integrated simulation method for flash-flood risk assessment: 1. Frequency predictions in the Bisagno River by combining stochastic and deterministic methods [PDF]

open access: yesHydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2002
International audienceA stochastic rainfall generator and a deterministic rainfall-runoff model, both distributed in space and time, are combined to provide accurate flood frequency prediction in the Bisagno River basin (Thyrrenian Liguria, N.W.

Characteristics of the floods in Pechea village, Galați county [PDF]

open access: yesRiscuri şi Catastrofe, 2021
This study aims to develop risk analysis methodologies on floods, analyze floods produced on the Suhu River in Pechea village (Galați county), and factors that favor flooding. Flood analysis represents one of the main concerns of researchers in hydrology

On the need for streamflow drought frequency guidelines in the U.S.

open access: yesWater Policy, 2021
Extreme drought and resulting low streamflows occur throughout the U.S., causing billions of dollars in annual losses, detrimentally impacting ecosystems, as well as agricultural, hydropower, navigation, water supply, recreation, and a myriad of other ...
