Hydrological regionalization of maximum stream flows using an approach based on L-moments

Hydrological regionalization of maximum stream flows using an approach based on L-moments

ABSTRACT The proper design of hydraulic structures depends on estimates of maximum stream flows. The scarce stream flow monitoring in Brazil has led to the use of regionalization methods. The main objective of this study was to develop a tool via regional function to estimate maximum stream flows an...
