The realisation effect in the estimation of flood frequency

Original language description

The method of continuous simulation within the GLUE uncertainty framework has been used on the Skalka catchment (671.7 km2). The study presents evaluation of flood frequency model using the limits of acceptability based on the uncertainty of rating curves and snow water equivalent extrapolation. To get a sufficient ensemble of behavioural models a scoring method of relaxing the limits has been employed. The important effect of randomness in flood frequency simulation is presented. In order to produce reasonable estimates of floods of 10 thousand years return period, series of the lengths of 100 thousand years should be computed.
