FOR462: Watershed Science & Management 2 Frequency Analysis – Why? Common dialog to describe events Quantify extreme events Flood flow return periods Engineering design Watershed planning Zoning Geomorphic processes Water resources management What is the probability of a given flow being available?

FOR462: Watershed Science & Management 3 How is Flow Variability Quantified? 2 Methods: 1.Recurrence interval / Flow probability General technique to describe the probability of an event occurring Frequently used for flood peaks Just like we did for precipitation 2.Flow duration Indicates the amount of time a given flow is equaled or exceeded Describes availability of water resources

FOR462: Watershed Science & Management 4 Frequency Analysis How’s it done? 1.Rank (sort) events 2.Calculate return interval (T r ) 3.Calculate probability (p) Example: Maximum hourly rainfall per year

FOR462: Watershed Science & Management 5 Frequency Analysis How’s it done? 1.Rank (sort) events 2.Calculate return interval (T r ) 3.Calculate probability (p) 4.Plot event vs. recurrence interval

FOR462: Watershed Science & Management 7 Flow Duration Analysis Variant of Flow Frequency Analysis Probability presented as: percent of time a given flow is equaled or exceeded Often constructed for a complete series of flows e.g. daily average streamflow
