Inferring heavy tails of flood distributions through hydrograph recession analysis [PDF]
Floods are often disastrous due to underestimation of the magnitude of rare events. Underestimation commonly happens when the magnitudes of floods follow a heavy-tailed distribution, but this behavior is not recognized and thus neglected for flood hazard

Robust Parameter Estimations Using L-Moments, TL-Moments and the Order Statistics [PDF]
Application of the method of moments for the parametric distribution is common in the construction of a suitable parametric distribution. However, moment method of parameter estimation does not produce good results. An alternative approach when constructing an appropriate parametric distribution for the considered data file is to use the so-called ...

Alternative Tools of Statistical Analysis: L-moments and TL-moments of Probability Distributions [PDF]
Moments and cumulants are commonly used to characterize the probability distribution or observed data set. The use of the moment method of parameter estimation is also common in the construction of an appropriate parametric distribution for a certain data set. The moment method does not always produce satisfactory results.
