The use of Monte Carlo simulations in the detection of nonstationarity in regional peak annual streamflow time series of British Columbia

The stationarity of historical hydrological time series is a fundamental assumption of water resources management. When this assumption proves valid, a time series is regarded as a stochastic process with constant statistical parameters. Anthropogenic activities may invalidate this assumption. La...
