| description abstract | Since the adoption of the log-Pearson Type 3 (LP3) distribution by U.S. federal agencies, it has been widely used in hydrology, but its properties are not well understood. This paper explores the characteristics of the LP3 distribution in both real space and log space, and their relationship. Comparisons with U.S. flood data summaries reveal that the LP3 distribution provides a reasonable model of the distribution of annual flood series from unregulated watersheds for log space skews | |
