Abstract

(10) and it is commonly used to implement a regional frequency analysis for a particular variable of interest. The aim of regional frequency analysis is to increase the information content of the analysis and to reduce the uncertainty of the design values estimates by 'trading space for time'. To address this issue, spatial (Regional) properties of extremes are studied and regional frequency analysis is typically applied. The regional approaches usually involve two major steps: the delineation of homogeneous regions (sometimes referred to as 'pooling groups') and the estimation of extreme value quantiles at the sites of interest using information from all sites in the region. Traditionally, homogeneous pooling groups were formed based on geographical position or administrative boundaries
