Abstract

The estimation of flood frequencies is being approached by continuous simulation of river flow time series. This is distinct from conventional design methodolgy where event-based procedures are used. Hourly data are used in semi-distributed rainfall-runoff formulations to predict flow series: flood frequencies are derived from these using partial duration series analysis. Results are discussed for a sample of ten UK catchments. Research issues arising from the work are outlined.
