On the asymptotic behavior of flood peak distributions – theoretical results

Author(s) : Gaume, E.
Description : This paper presents some analytical results and numerical illustrations on the asymptotic properties of flood peak distributions obtained through derived flood frequency approaches. It confirms and extends the results of previous works: i.e. the shape of the flood peak distributions are asymptotical...

Over-parameterisation, a major obstacle to the use of artificial neural networks in hydrology?

Author(s) : Gaume, E. , Gosset, R.
Description : Recently Feed-Forward Artificial Neural Networks (FNN) have been gaining popularity for stream flow forecasting. However, despite the promising results presented in recent papers, their use is questionable. In theory, their "universal approximator? property guarantees that, if a sufficient number of...

Uncertainties on mean areal precipitation: assessment and impact on streamflow simulations

Description : This paper investigates the influence of mean areal rainfall estimation errors on a specific case study: the use of lumped conceptual rainfall-runoff models to simulate the flood hydrographs of three small to medium-sized catchments of the upper Loire river. This area (3200 km2) is densely covered b...

Use of historical data to assess the occurrence of floods in small watersheds in the French Mediterranean area

Description : The results of an investigation on historical floods in four watersheds of the Aude region in France are presented herein. Using both, archive documents and field investigations, the discharges of the main historical floods could be estimated for a period ranging from one to two centuries. The use o...

Value of distributed post-flood maximum discharge estimation for the evaluation of a regional flash-flood modelling approach

Description : In September 2002 a flash flood killed 23 human lives and generated 1.2 billion Euros of damages in less than 24 hours over an area of 20 000 km2 located in the south of France. The Gard river basin was hit by a storm that locally received more than 600 mm in one day. This storm triggered catastroph...

Flood frequency analysis using historical data: accounting for random and systematic errors

Description : Flood frequency analysis based on a set of systematic data and a set of historical floods is applied to several Mediterranean catchments. After identification and collection of data on historical floods, several hydraulic models were constructed to account for geomorphological changes. Recent and hi...
