United StatesNorth AmericaA Derived Flood Frequency Distribution Based on the Density Function of Rainfall Excess
Published:
July 1, 1983U.S. Agency for International Development
The geomorphoclimatic theory is used, along with the joint probability density function of storm duration and storm intensity and the representation of the infiltration process, to derive the flood frequency distribution for a given catchment. The infiltration process is represented by two...Read more
