چکیده

This paper first presents a duration-dependent hypothesis regarding the parameters of the two component extreme value (TCEV) distribution and proposes a simple model to obtain the rainfall depthduration relationship both at ungauged sites and at short record gauged sites in the Sicilian region. Then, by using the annual maximum peak flood and the annual maximum mean daily discharge recorded in Sicily, a TCEV hierarchical regional procedure is developed. An empirical estimation criterion which links the mean annual flood with the watershed area, and a modified rational formula in which a mean runoff coefficient is introduced, are proposed. Finally, two relationships are established for estimating the mean runoff coefficient, making use of the permeable watershed area and the wooded area. Analyse régionales des pluies et des crues en Sicile grâce à la loi des valeurs extrêmes à deux composantes Résumé Ayant admis l'hypothèse d'une dépendance des paramètres de la loi des valeurs extrêmes à deux composantes à la durée considérée, les auteurs proposent un modèle simple permettant d'établir une relation hauteur-durée aussi bien dans les zones dépourvues de stations pluviométriques que dans celles qui en sont pourvues mais qui ne disposent que de brèves séries d'observations. Ensuite, utilisant les chroniques des maximums des débits de pointe annuels et des maximums des débits moyens journaliers, ils appliquent la loi des valeurs extrêmes à deux composantes à l'échelle régionale. Un critère empirique d'estimation reliant la crue moyenne annuelle et l'aire du bassin est alors proposé, ainsi qu'une formule rationnelle, modifiée par l'introduction d'un coefficient de débit moyen. Les auteurs présentent enfin deux relations prenant en compte la surface perméable et de la couverture forestière du bassin afin d'estimer le coefficient moyen de débit.

A Regional Methodology for Deriving Flood Frequency Curves (FFC) in Partially Gauged Catchments with Uncertain Knowledge of Soil Moisture Conditions

In this paper a Monte Carlo procedure for deriving frequency distributions of extreme discharges starting from a simplified description of rainfall and surface runoff processes and using regional data is presented. The procedure is based on two modules: a stochastic rainfall generator module and a catchment response module. In the rainfall generator module the rainfall storm, i.e. the maximum r...
