Abstract: This paper presents a general expression that may be used to determine the minimum number of locations in a river basin at which cross-correlated point precipitation time series must be stochastically generated to adequately ...

Abstract: Previous studies have shown that the shape parameter of the generalized extreme-value (GEV) distribution, a distribution commonly applied in precipitation frequency analysis, is difficult to estimate from short records ...

Abstract: In frequency analysis of point precipitation extremes, one approach that has been suggested is to segregate precipitation data by storm type. Thus, for short-duration (e.g., 2-h) extremes, only observations from ...
