Abstract
ABSTRACT: The goal of this study is to evaluate the goodness of fit of alternate PDFs (probability distribution functions) to sequences of annual maximum streamflows in North-Western and Middle Europe. Though we never know with certainty the true population from which observed streamflows arise, studies such as this may provide some guidence on which PDFs provide a reasonable approximation.
