Abstract:Algeria is periodically affected by severe and repeated flooding. Flood hazard studies require the estimation of extreme flood flows. To predict and estimate the characteristics of maximum flows, knowledge of their distribution law is essential.

This technique produced a Pearson type III distribution for the coastal region and the Tell Atlas and a Pareto … Show more
