Abstract: | This study investigates the regional analysis of annual maximum flood series of 48 stream gauging stations in the basins of the West Mediterranean Region in Turkey. The region is divided into three homogeneous subregions according to both Student-t test and Dalrymple homogeneity test. The regional relationships of mean annual flood per unit area-drainage area and coefficient of skew-coefficient of variation are obtained. Two statistically meaningful relationships of the mean flood per unit area-drainage area and a unique relationship between skewness and variation coefficients exist. Results show that the index-flood method may be applicable to each homogenous subregion to estimate flood quantiles in the study area. © 2008 American Water Resources Association. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/11499/7242 https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1752-1688.2007.00136.x |
