MULTIVARIATE RETURN PERIODS IN HYDROLOGY: A CRITICAL AND PRACTICAL REVIEW FOCUSING ON SYNTHETIC DESIGN HYDROGRAPH ESTIMATION

Multivariate return periods in hydrology: a critical and practical review focusing on synthetic design hydrograph estimation

Most of the hydrological and hydraulic studies refer to the notion of a return period to quantify design variables.When dealing with multiple design variables, the well-known univariate statistical analysis is no longer satisfactory, and several issues challenge the practitioner.How should one incorporate the dependence between variables? How shoul
