Derivation of Design Floods by the Probability Weighted Moments in the Wakeby Distribution
Wakeby 분포모형의 확률가중모멘트기법에 의한 설계홍수량 유도(수공)
Abstract
The objective of this study is to derive optimal design floods by the Wakeby distribution using the probability weighted moments. parameters for the Wakeby distribution were estimated by the probability weighted moments for the annual flood flows of the applied watersheds. Design floods obtained by the Wakeby and GEV distributions were compared by the relative mean errors, relative absolute errors and root mean square errors. In general, it has shown that the design floods by the Wakeby distribution using the methods of the probability weighted moments are closer to those of the observed data in comparison with those obtained by the GEV distribution.
