Flood Frequency Analyses over Different Basin Scales in the Blue Nile River Basin, Ethiopia
Hydrology, 2020 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
Journal of Hydrology X, 2021 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]
Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2021 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.

Eos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1985 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]
Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2019 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 ...

Non-Stationary Flood Discharge Frequency Analysis in West Africa
GeoHazards, 2023 With climate change and intensification of the hydrological cycle, the stationarity of hydrological variables is becoming questionable, requiring appropriate flood assessment models. Frequency analysis is widely used for flood forecasting.

Flood Frequency Analysis [PDF]
, 2011 Floods can be characterised by peak flow, flood volume with a defined duration, or other attributes. They are considered as independent and identically distributed. Empirical flood frequency provides the basis for analytical flood frequency estimation. Computer software helps to speed up the frequency analysis process.

Stochastic semi-continuous simulation for extreme flood estimation in catchments with combined rainfall–snowmelt flood regimes [PDF]
, 2014 Simulation methods for extreme flood estimation represent an important complement to statistical flood frequency analysis because a spectrum of catchment conditions potentially leading to extreme flows can be assessed.

Recent trends in the frequency and duration of global floods [PDF]
Earth System Dynamics, 2018 Frequency and duration of floods are analyzed using the global flood database of the Dartmouth Flood Observatory (DFO) to explore evidence of trends during 1985–2015 at global and latitudinal scales.
