COMPARISON OF FLOOD FREQUENCY ANALYSIS METHODS FOR RIVER TARABA

COMPARISON OF FLOOD FREQUENCY ANALYSIS METHODS FOR RIVER TARABA

Abstract:

Water resource designs based on flood are perfect examples of decisions under uncertainty. Three types of uncertainties may exist in a flood design problem – when the classical method is used. These are natural, parameter and model uncertainties. To reduce the parameter and model uncertainties, the Bayesian procedure has…

REGIONAL FLOOD-FREQUENCY ANALYSIS OF OGUN-OSHUN RIVER BASINS

REGIONAL FLOOD-FREQUENCY ANALYSIS OF OGUN-OSHUN RIVER BASINS

Abstract:

This project describes a procedure for estimating the design floods from regional frequency curves for ungauged areas drained by rivers Ogun and Oshun of Western Nigeria. Streamflow records at nine gauging stations were used for the study. For estimating purposes, two relations have been derived. The first relates graphically…
