Comparison between the peaks-over-threshold method and the annual maximum method for flood frequency analysis

N Bezak, M Brilly, M Šraj - Hydrological Sciences Journal, 2014 - Taylor & Francis

Flood frequency analysis: assumptions and alternatives

R Kidson, KS Richards - Progress in Physical Geography, 2005 - journals.sagepub.com
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 …

New approach to estimate extreme flooding using continuous synthetic simulation supported by regional precipitation and non-systematic flood data
