Kriging and inverse-square-distance for the interpolation of rainfall equation parameters
01/Oct/2003
To design hydraulic structures, a sound estimation of rainfall parameters is necessary, in order to ensure the technical and economical feasibility of the project. Equations to predict intense rainfall are widely used to estimate runoff peak discharge. The difficulty to obtain estimates for sites where no rainfall data are available can be overcome by the interpolation of precipitation data, based on neighboring meteorological stations, through statistical procedures. The objective of this work was to compare the two most accurate statistical […]
