An appraisal of the "region of influence" approach to flood frequency analysis
Regional flood frequency entails the pooling of data from sites within a defined region to enhance the estimation of at-site quantiles. Conventional regionalization techniques normally identify a feed set of stations forming a contiguous region. An approach to regional flood frequency analysis that involves each site having a potentially different set of stations included for the at-site estima...
متن کاملAn Entropy-Based Generalized Gamma Distribution for Flood Frequency Analysis
Flood frequency analysis (FFA) is needed for the design of water engineering and hydraulic structures. The choice of an appropriate frequency distribution is one of the most important issues in FFA. A key problem in FFA is that no single distribution has been accepted as a global standard. The common practice is to try some candidate distributions and select the one best fitting the data, based...
متن کاملFlood frequency analysis: assumptions and alternatives
Flood frequency analysis (FFA) is a form of risk analysis, yet a risk analysis of the activity of FFA itself is rarely undertaken. The recent literature of FFA has been characterized by: (1) a proliferation of mathematical models, lacking theoretical hydrologic justification, but used to extrapolate the return periods of floods beyond the gauged record; (2) official mandating of particular mode...
متن کاملInteractive Musical Biocomputer: an Unconventional Approach to Research in Unconventional Computing
Computer music is a truly interdisciplinary field; practitioners are well known for experimenting with new and developing technologies from a wide span of disciplines. Such experimentation is a tradition that stems back to the genesis of computer music, where a mathematician with a musical background programmed an early computer in the early 1950s to play a tune. The area of computer music has ...
