Peaks-over-threshold model in flood frequency analysis: a scoping review
In flood frequency analysis (FFA), annual maximum (AM) model is widely adopted in
practice due to its straightforward sampling process. However, AM model has been criticized …

Probabilistic landslide hazard assessment at the basin scale
We propose a probabilistic model to determine landslide hazard at the basin scale. The
model predicts where landslides will occur, how frequently they will occur, and how large …

Comparison between the peaks-over-threshold method and the annual maximum method for flood frequency analysis
Flood frequency analysis can be made by using two types of flood peak series, ie the annual
maximum (AM) and peaks-over-threshold (POT) series. This study presents a comparison of …

Uncertainties in partial duration series modelling of extremes related to the choice of the threshold value
S Beguería - Journal of Hydrology, 2005 - Elsevier
Partial duration series modelling is a robust tool with which to model hydrologic extremes,
but because of several technical problems it remains underused. The most important …
