Monte Carlo simulation of paleofloods: information content of paleoflood data in flood-frequency analysis
Paleoflood hydrology is a technique for assessing the magnitude and frequency of floods in bedrock canyons. I calculate effects of adding paleoflood data to gaging data on estimating low return-period quantiles using peak discharge sample statistics from a bedrock-constrained river, the Salt River n...
