CE 374K Hydrology Frequency Factors

Frequency Analysis using Frequency Factors f(x) x xTxT

Frequency Factors for Log Pearson Type III Distribution

Example: 100 year flood on Colorado River Colorado River at Austin, annual maximum flows, 1900 to What is the 100 year flood based on these data? Take logs to base 10 of the annual flows Compute the mean, standard deviation and coefficient of skewness of the data (Excel functions: Average, Stdev, Skew) Results: Mean = , Standard Dev = , Skew = From Table , For T = 100 years, and C s = 0.6, K T = 2.755; For T = 100 years, and C s = 0.7, K T = 2.824; By interpolation, For T = 100 years, and C s = , K T = ;

Example continued … Result from HEC-SSP

Results in HEC-SSP Q T = 524,000 cfs for T = 100 years or p = 0.01

Probability Plotting

Coefficient of Skewness, C s

Coefficient of Skewness (Cont.)

Mapped Skewness Values

Coefficient of Skewness (Cont.) If we repeat the frequency analysis using the weighted skewness

Big impact on extreme flood estimates, less so for small ones With sample skewness, 0.692With the adjusted skewness, year 10 year

Additional Considerations Confidence Limits Outliers Expected Probability

Outliers Is this value (481,000 cfs) representative of the rest of the data?

Example Observed maximum is 481,000 cfs, hence it’s a high outlier, but we’ll keep it in the analysis anyway.

Confidence Limits (90% of observed 100 year floods are expected to be between these limits) – = cfs – = cfs (32% smaller) (73% larger) 5 % 95 %

Expected Probability Skewed distribution (non-central t distn) Median (50% above and below) Mean Expected Value of Q T E(Q T ) If there are lots of floods, average value is E(Q T ) This what you need if you are insuring $6 billion in property over the US for lots of floods, as is the National Flood Insurance Program

Flood discharge Vs Return Period Discharge Return Period (Years) Design discharge rises less than proportional to return period
