A general dimensionless rainfall depth-duration-ferquency relationship

regional flow duration curve in arid regions for ungauged basins (case study: central iran)

a flow-duration curve (fdc) illustrates the relationship between the frequency and magnitude of streamflow. applications of fdc are of interest for many hydrological problems related to hydropower generation, river and reservoir sedimentation, water quality assessment, water-use assessment, water allocation and habitat suitability. this study was carried out in 11 selected watersheds with commo...

Modeling of monthly flow duration curve using nonlinear regression method for un-gauged watersheds of Ardabil Province

The flow duration curve (FDC) represents the frequency distribution of water flow over a period of time, which is widely used in hydrology to evaluate different ranges of river water flow applications. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a suitable estimation model and method in un-gauged watersheds. To this end, in the present study, a modeling method based on nonlinear regression, for the p...

River Flow

This chapter presents a range of key concepts that enable natural rivers to be understood as complex flows of water and sediment that interact and often result in changes to the channel shape. The implications for salmon fisheries and invertebrates are also considered. Rivers are linear features and so it might be supposed that the flow hydraulics would be unidirectional and relatively simple t...
