A Regional Frequency Analysis of Tide Gauges to Assess Pacific Coast Flood Risk
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2020 A regional frequency analysis (RFA) of tide gauge (TG) data fit with a Generalized Pareto Distribution (GPD) is used to estimate contemporary extreme sea level (ESL) probabilities and the risk of a damaging flood along Pacific Basin coastlines.

Regional frequency analysis of extreme rainfalls
Water Science and Technology, 2002 This study proposes two alternative methods for estimating the distribution of extreme rainfalls for sites where rainfall data are available (gaged sites) and for locations without data (ungaged sites). The first method deals with the estimation of short-duration rainfall extremes from available rainfall data for longer durations using the “scale ...
