About this document
Frequency Analysis in Hydrology by Chandra Upadhyaya is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document discusses frequency analysis of hydrologic data. Frequency analysis relates the magnitude of extreme hydrologic events like floods or droughts to their frequency of occurrence using probability distributions. It assumes hydrologic systems are stochastic and hydrologic data is independent and identically distributed. Return period is defined as the average time between occurrences of an event. Return period analysis can be used to estimate the probability of extreme events for engineering purpo
