Abstract: L-moment diagrams are constructed for annual minimum, average, and maximum streamflows at more than 1,455 river basins in the United States. Goodness-of-fit comparisons reveal that the generalized extreme value (GEV), ...

Abstract: Estimates of annual streamflow volumes are needed in many different types of hydrologic studies. Usually a streamgauge is unavailable at the location of interest, hence regional methods that relate streamflow to readily ...
