    Detailed information for defining the flooding potential at a specific location in terms of peak discharge and exceedance probability (e.g., year, year, year floods) can be found in Guidelines for Determining Flood Flow Frequency, Bulletin #17A of the Hydrology Committee, revised June , as published by the United States Water. Last week I went with President Clinton to see the flood damage in North Dakota and it was devastating. We have never been through a disaster in which we have lost entire cities-like Ada, Breckinridge, and Moorhead City, Minnesota, and Grand Forks and East Grand .

Techniques are presented for estimating the magnitude and frequency of flood discharges on rural, unregulated streams in New York, excluding Long Island.

Peak-discharge-frequency data and basin characteristics from streamflow-gaging stations in New York and adjacent states were used to develop multiple linear regression equations for flood.

as Bulletin No. 17, "Guidelines for Determining Flood Flow Frequency." It presented the currently accepted methods for analyzing peak flow frequency data at gaging stations with sufficient detail to promote uniform applica- tion. The guide was a synthesis of studies undertaken to findmethod.

As shown in the figure above, river discharge (flow in m 3 /s or ft 3 /s) is generally plotted on the y-axis using either a linear or logarithmic scale. Return period and/or exceedance probability are plotted on the x-axis.

In the figure below, the x-axis scale is a modified probability scale, so that the resulting flood frequency curve appears as a straight line.

StreamStats Application. StreamStats is a Web application that provides access to an assortment of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) analytical tools that are useful for water-resources planning and management, and for engineering and design purposes.

The map-based user interface can be used to delineate drainage areas for user-selected sites on streams, and then get basin characteristics. Full text of "Flood flow frequency for ungaged watersheds: a literature evaluation" See other formats.

4) To estimate the frequency with which floods of a certain magnitude may occur. Knowledge of flood frequency is necessary also to flood insurance and flood zoning. Either overdesign or underdesign of structures involves excessive costs on a long-time basis.

The most direct method of design flood estimation is at-site flood frequency analysis, which relies on a relatively long period of recorded streamflow data at a given site.

Selection of an appropriate probability distribution and associated parameter estimation procedure is of prime importance in at-site flood frequency analysis. The choice of the probability distribution for a given Cited by: Guidelines for Determining Flood Flow Frequency, Bulletin 17B.

This guide describes the data and procedures for computing flood flow frequency curves where systematic stream gaging records of sufficient length (at least 10 years) to warrant statistical analysis as a basis for determination.

A new method of grouping basins prior to regional flood frequency analysis is presented which is based on measured basin characteristics rather than on geographical regions. Estimates of the magnitude and frequency of floods are needed across Alaska for engineering design of transportation and water-conveyance structures, flood-insurance studies, flood-plain management, and other water-resource purposes.
