Abstract

A comprehensive analysis of flood waves is a precondition for reliable frequency analyses of flood events. The aim of the study is to determine the reasonableness of using hourly or daily discharge data with and without consideration of local extremes. Peaks, volumes and durations of 58 flood waves and their correlation have been analysed. It has been found out that consideration of daily values with absolute local peaks is reasonable. The results show that the correlation between volumes and durations is higher than the correlation between peaks and volumes of the wave. Peaks and durations are independent variables as expected.
