A review: regiopnal frequency analysis of annual maximum rainfall in Monsoon region of pakistan using l-moments

Abstract

A regional frequency analysis has been conducted for annual maximum rainfall in Monsoon region of Pakistan using Hosking’s L-moments technique. Monsoon region was divided into three regions based on at-site characteristics. It was found generalized normal distribution to be best robust for quantile estimation of large return periods and generalized extreme value distribution for quantiles of low return periods for all three regions.
