Statistical methods for hydrological studies

Bringing together 11 papers, this volume examines how statistical approaches are applied to hydrological data and processes. Its topics range from detecting changes in hydrometeorological variables to forecasting, prediction, and analysis of uncertainty. The collection also addresses engineering hydrological design under stationary and nonstationary conditions, alongside the use of statistical models to assess land-use and climate-change scenarios in catchments. Across these subjects, the book presents statistics as a way to describe complex hydrological systems and support practical analysis, planning, and forecasting.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Researchers and practitioners working with hydrological data or models
  • Readers interested in statistical forecasting and uncertainty analysis in hydrology
  • Those studying hydrological engineering design and catchment change

Book overview

Statistical methods have a long history in the analysis of hydrological data for de-signing, planning, infilling, forecasting, and specifying better models to assess scenarios of land use and climate change in catchments. The effectiveness of statistical descriptions of hydrological processes reflects the enormous complexity of hydrological systems, which makes a purely deterministic description ineffective. This book hosts 11 papers devoted to statistics in hydrology, summarizing the recent advancement in statistical methods for hydrological studies such as statistical analysis of changes in hydrometeorological variables, forecasting and prediction of hydrological elements, hydrological forecasting uncertainty analysis, the use of new statistical methodologies for engineering hydrological design under stationary/nonstationary conditions, and so on. In general, the book will contribute to the promotion of the application of statistical methods in hydrology.
