Published in 2018 at "Hydrology and Earth System Sciences"

DOI: 10.5194/hess-22-2759-2018

Abstract: Abstract. The assessment of the impacts of extreme floods is important for dealing with residual risk, particularly for critical infrastructure management and for insurance purposes. Thus, modelling of the probable maximum flood (PMF) from probable… read more here.
