A study on selection of probability distributions for at-site flood frequency analysis in Australia (2013, methodology): “The AIC, based on the principle of maximum entropy, has been used in flood frequency model selection in several previous studies (e.g., Strupczewski et al. 2002; Laio et al. 2009; Haddad and Rahman 2010).”
Selection of the best fit probability distribution in rainfall frequency analysis for Qatar (2017, methodology): “Furthermore, there are many parameter estimation methods available that could possibly be applied with a selected probability distribution (Haddad and Rahman 2010). Numerous studies have been conducted around the world on the selection of probability distributions in flood frequency analyses (e.g. C”
Bayesian flood frequency analysis in the light of model and parameter uncertainties (2012, methodology): “However, it is difficult to find the best fit distribution and parameter estimation method from lots of candidate flood frequency analysis approaches (Haddad and Rahman 2003).”
Magnitude Frequency Analysis of Small Floods Using the Annual and Partial Series (2013, methodology): “The parameters of the GPD were estimated [34] using a maximum likelihood approach [40].”
