Abstract: The Halphen system and the generalized extreme-value (GEV) distributions are recommended for the estimation of the hydrological extreme events. The GEV system is widely used, whereas the Halphen distributions are less known ...

Abstract: The peaks over threshold (POT) is a widely used technique to describe the exceedances of hydrological data above a threshold. It is well known that, under some conditions, the exceedances distribution can be approximated ...
