The quantile mapping method is a bias correction method that leads to a good performance
in terms of precipitation. Selecting an appropriate probability distribution model is essential …

The global mean surface temperature is rising and under climate change it is expected to
increase in the future. The changes are not uniform across the world and the impact …

New developments are presented enabling the using a four-parameter kappa distribution
with the widely used regional goodness-of-fit methods as part of an index flood regional …

This paper presents an application of the L-moments and L-moment ratio diagrams (LMRD)
to the analysis of hydrological data at regional (country) scale. Existing research focuses on …

An imprecise probabilistic framework for design flood estimation is proposed on the basis of
the Dempster‐Shafer theory to handle different epistemic uncertainties from data, probability …

The regional frequency analysis (RFA) is a widely used method in analyzing the changes of
extreme precipitation (EP). The uncertainties in the identification of homogeneous …

Abstract The Upper Vistula River basin was divided into pooling groups with similar
dimensionless frequency distributions of annual maximum river discharge. The cluster …

This study investigates choices of statistical distributions to represent the threshold
exceedance frequency and magnitude of peaks-over-threshold (POT) series from a national …

Abstract The Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI) is a worldwide used probability-based
drought index. Considering that the two-parameter gamma distribution (gam) is often used to …

The use of historical data can significantly reduce the uncertainty around estimates of the
magnitude of rare events obtained with extreme value statistical models. For historical data …
