This article analyzes six probability distributions from the Generalized Pareto family, with
three, four and five parameters, with the main purpose of identifying other distributions from …

Owing to their essential influence on human society and natural environment exerted by
inducing disasters, such as floods and droughts, further studies on precipitation extremes in …

Precipitation in northeastern Algeria is irregular, often exhibiting exceptional values.
Extreme precipitation events, such as annual maximum daily precipitation (AMDP), can …

The parameter estimation of statistical distributions is important for regional frequency
analysis (RFA). The accuracy of different parts of RFA such as estimating the regional …

Abstract Intensity Duration Frequency (IDF) curves are important tools for hydraulic and
hydrologic design. Considering that there are different approaches to obtain the rainfall …

Frequency estimates of extreme precipitation are revised using a regional L-moments
method based on the annual maximum series and Chow's equation at lower return periods …

Precipitation is the main water resource for agronomy. The frequency is one of the most
significant characteristics of precipitation. The objectives of this study are (1) to identify the …

The analysis of rainfall frequency is an important step in hydrology and water resources
engineering. However, a lack of measuring stations, short duration of statistical periods, and …

The regional frequency analysis of extreme annual rainfall data is a useful methodology in
hydrology to obtain certain quantile values when no long data series are available. The most …

Sometimes the data to be analyzed is not complete, and this may be due to censoring. There
are two type of censoring, namely Type I and Type II. Whether the censoring was intentional …
