Sampling uncertainty of UK design flood estimation
The UK standard for estimating flood frequencies is outlined by the flood estimation handbook (FEH) and associated updates. Estimates inevitably come with uncertainty due to sampling error as well as model and measurement error.

Flood Frequency Analysis of Kadamaian and Wariu Rivers in Kota Belud, Sabah, Malaysia [PDF]
Flood frequency analysis is crucial for understanding flood risks in specific regions. This study applied the Gumbel Distribution Method to analyze flood frequency using river discharge data from the Kadamaian and Wariu Rivers in Kota Belud, Sabah ...

Flood Frequency Analyses over Different Basin Scales in the Blue Nile River Basin, Ethiopia
The frequency and intensity of flood quantiles and its attendant damage in agricultural establishments have generated a lot of issues in Ethiopia. Moreover, precise estimates of flood quantiles are needed for efficient design of hydraulic structures ...

Regionalisation of flood frequencies based on flood type-specific mixture distributions
The regionalisation of flood frequencies is a precondition for the estimation of flood statistics for ungauged basins. It is often based on either the concept of hydrological similarity of catchments or spatial proximity. Similarity is usually defined by

The impact of the spatiotemporal structure of rainfall on flood frequency over a small urban watershed: an approach coupling stochastic storm transposition and hydrologic modeling [PDF]
The role of rainfall space–time structure, as well as its complex interactions with land surface properties, in flood response remains an open research issue.

Dez Basin Flood Frequency Analysis [PDF]
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.

Accurate estimation of the magnitude of large floods and their frequency is of continuing concern to hydrologists, and thus a special session on this topic was held at the 1985 AGU Spring Meeting in Baltimore, Md. At the session, papers by W. Kirby and by K. Potter and J.

Process-based flood frequency analysis in an agricultural watershed exhibiting nonstationary flood seasonality [PDF]
Floods are the product of complex interactions among processes including precipitation, soil moisture, and watershed morphology. Conventional flood frequency analysis (FFA) methods such as design storms and discharge-based statistical methods offer few ...

Flood frequency analysis in the world
The paper deals with the hypothesis that floods in the last few decades recorded an extreme increase in frequency. As analysis of the number of events is the first step in the flood risk modelling, an empirical study was conducted based on data from the natural disaster database of the Université Catholique de Louvain in Belgium. The Mann Kendall Trend
