Drought Analysis in East Nusa Tenggara (Indonesia) Using Regional Frequency Analysis [PDF]

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2021
Drought is a condition of a shortage of water that has an impact on economic activity. This research studies the severe drought area in Indonesia using Regional Frequency Analysis (RFA), based on daily precipitation data recorded at nine stations.

Incorporating spatial dependence in regional frequency analysis. [PDF]

open access: yesWater Resour Res, 2014
AbstractThe efficiency of regional frequency analysis (RFA) is undermined by intersite dependence, which is usually ignored in parameter estimation. We propose a spatial index flood model where marginal generalized extreme value distributions are joined by an extreme‐value copula characterized by a max‐stable process for the spatial dependence.

Optimal depth-based regional frequency analysis [PDF]

open access: yesHydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2013
Classical methods of regional frequency analysis (RFA) of hydrological variables face two drawbacks: (1) the restriction to a particular region which can lead to a loss of some information and (2) the definition of a region that generates a border effect.

Improved Regional Frequency Analysis of rainfall data

open access: yesWeather and Climate Extremes, 2022
Rainfall are subject to local orography features and their intensities can be highly variable. In this context, identifying climatically coherent regions can greatly help interpreting rainfall patterns and improve the inference of return levels.

Regional Flood Frequency Analysis Using Computer Simulations [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Advanced Engineering Research and Science, 2017
Different probability distribution methods were employed to determine the flood frequency analysis using computer simulations. Many probability distributions including Gumbel, lognormal, log-Pearson type iii, General Extreme value have been tried to fit the data. The length of record for most of the stations is over 10 years (chosen from 1956 0nwards).

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 ...

Regional frequency analysis of extreme wind in Pakistan using robust estimation methods [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
The quantile estimates of extreme wind speed are needed for various areas of interest using regional frequency analysis (RFA) and extreme value theory. These calculations are crucial for the coding of wind speed. The data was taken from the NASA official

Regional Ombrian Curves: Design Rainfall Estimation for a Spatially Diverse Rainfall Regime

open access: yesHydrology, 2022
Ombrian curves, i.e., curves linking rainfall intensity to return period and time scale, are well-established engineering tools crucial to the design against stormwaters and floods.

Quantifying Drought Characteristics in Complex Climate and Scarce Data Regions of Afghanistan

open access: yesGeosciences, 2023
Droughts cause critical and major risk to ecosystems, agriculture, and social life. While attempts have been made globally to understand drought characteristics, data scarcity in developing countries often challenges detailed analysis, including climatic,
