Frequency analysis is a technique of fitting a probability distribution to a series of
observations for defining the probabilities of future occurrences of some events of interest …

Conventional methods for designing infrastructure that is subject to flood risk, such as dams
and levees, assume a stationary design flood. However, observed and potential non …

Mountain snowpack serves as an immense natural water reservoir, and knowledge of snow
conditions helps predict seasonal water availability and offers critical early warning of …

This is the second edition of Climate Time Series Analysis which was first published in 2010.
In this digital age, a second edition means not that the first edition of a book has been sold …

The objective of the present study is to develop efficient estimation methods for the use of
the GEV distribution for quantile estimation in the presence of nonstationarity. Parameter …

During the last century, we have observed a warming climate with more intense precipitation
extremes in some regions, likely due to increases in the atmosphere's water holding …

Flood estimation and flood management have traditionally been the domain of hydrologists,
water resources engineers and statisticians, and disciplinary approaches abound. Dominant …

Rain-on-snow events pose a significant flood hazard in the western United States. This
study provides a description of the spatial and temporal variability of the frequency of rain-on …

Using precipitation and temperature data for the 20th century in combination with a
macroscale hydrologic model, we evaluate changes in flood risk in the western US …

Recent evidences of the impact of persistent modes of regional climate variability, coupled
with the intensification of human activities, have led hydrologists to study flood regime …
