Review of criteria for the selection of probability distributions for wind speed data and introduction of the moment and L-moment ratio diagram methods, with a case study [PDF]

open access: yesEnergy Conversion and Management, 2016
This paper reviews the different criteria used in the field of wind energy to compare the goodness-of-fit of candidate probability density functions (pdfs) to wind speed records, and discusses their advantages and disadvantages.

Multivariate L-Moments Based on Transports

2015
Univariate L-moments are expressed as projections of the quantile function onto an orthogonal basis of univariate polynomials. We present multivariate versions of L-moments expressed as collections of orthogonal projections of a multivariate quantile function on a basis of multivariate polynomials.

Estimation of drought rainfall using L-moments

Irrigation and Drainage, 2005
En utilisant les donnees des pluviosites mensuelles minimums par une duree consecutive de 1, 2, 4, 6, 9 et 12 mois qui ont ete mesurees aux 57 stations de pluviometrie en Coree du Sud, cette etude a vise a essayer de faire une derivation des pluviosites de secheresse dessinees en utilisant la methode de L-moment.

Gaussian Centered L-moments

2017
As various types of media currently generate so-called big data, data visualization faces the challenge of selecting a few representative variables that best summarize important structure inherent in data. The conventional moments-based summary statistics can be useful for the purpose of variable screening.

Frequency Analysis of Upper Cauvery Flood Data by L-Moments

Water Resources Management, 1994
The objectives of the present study are to investigate the hydrological homogeneity of Upper Cauvery annual maximum flow data and to select a suitable distribution for the frequency analysis. The L-moments method is used in this analysis. The Upper Cauvery river basin is shown to be hydrologically heterogeneous.

L-Moments of Residual Life and Partial Moments

2013
The residual life distribution and various descriptive measures derived from it form the basis of modelling, characterization and ageing concepts in reliability theory. Of these, the moment-based descriptive measures such as mean, variance and coefficient of variation of residual life and their quantile forms were all discussed earlier in Chaps.

Characterisation of global precipitation frequency through the L‐moments approach

Area, 2012
Higher‐order statistics, such as skewness and kurtosis, are useful measures to describe the shape of a probability distribution. In hydrology, the assessment of these parameters is an important step for representing precipitation frequencies and understanding rainfall variability.
