Abstract:The use of flood frequency analysis (FFA) to estimate both the magnitude and frequency of the design flood is severely limited by short gauging records. This thesis seeks to improve our understanding of the frequency and magnitude of extreme flood events, with an aim to advance flood risk management and policy planning through the integration of spatial and temporal extreme flood information. This research undertakes a field-work based regional study, collecting slackwater deposits (SWDs) as extreme flood arch… Show more
