A nonparametric copula distribution framework for bivariate joint distribution analysis of flood characteristics for the Kelantan River basin in Malaysia

open access: yesAIMS Geosciences, 2020
The joint distribution analysis of multidimensional flood characteristics i.e., flood peak flow, volume and duration, often facilitates a comprehensive understanding in the hydrologic risk assessments. Copula-based methodology are frequently incorporated

Dissociation between Cervical Mucus and Urinary Hormones during the Postpartum Return of Fertility in Breastfeeding Women [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Identifying the return of fertility with cervical mucus observations is challenging during the postpartum period. Use of urinary measurements of estrogen and progesterone can assist in understanding the return to fertility during this period.

Return period curves for extreme 5-min rainfall amounts at the Barcelona urban network [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Heavy rainfall episodes are relatively common in the conurbation of Barcelona and neighbouring cities (NE Spain), usually due to storms generated by convective phenomena in summer and eastern and south-eastern advections in autumn.

Regional Differences in Spatiotemporal Drought Characteristics in Great Britain

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science, 2021
Despite being one of the most damaging natural hazards, droughts and their spatiotemporal dynamics are typically not well understood. Great Britain, which is the focus of this work, has experienced many major drought episodes in the past, causing a range

Stochastic urban pluvial flood hazard maps based upon a spatial-temporal rainfall generator [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
It is a common practice to assign the return period of a given storm event to the urban pluvial flood event that such storm generates. However, this approach may be inappropriate as rainfall events with the same return period can produce different urban ...

Dismissing return periods! [PDF]

open access: yesStochastic Environmental Research and Risk Assessment, 2014
The concept of return period in stationary univariate frequency analysis is prone to misconceptions and misuses that are well known but still widespread. In this study we highlight how nonstationary and multivariate extensions of such a concept are affected by additional misconceptions, thus easily resulting in further ill-posed procedures and ...

A stochastic design rainfall generator based on copulas and mass curves [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The use of design storms can be very useful in many hydrological and hydraulic practices. In this study, the concept of a copula-based secondary return period in combination with the concept of mass curves is used to generate point-scale design storms ...
