Distributions of fractional order statistics in hydrology
- S. Durrans
- Mathematics
- 1 June 1992
A critical issue in parametric methods of frequency analysis, regardless of the phenomenon being modeled, is that of selection of a form of probability distribution to be applied. When one is… Expand

This study, on innovative methods for the capture of metals from stormwat er, focused on two major areas of investigation: media filters and swales. The test w ater for both the filters and the… Expand
Joint Seasonal/Annual Flood Frequency Analysis
- S. Durrans, M. A. Eiffe, W. Thomas, H. M. Goranflo
- Environmental Science
- 1 July 2003
Flood frequency analysis, as commonly practiced, focuses on the estimation of return periods associated with annual maximum flood peaks of various magnitudes. In some applications, it is desirable to… Expand
Low‐flow analysis with a conditional Weibull Tail Model
- S. Durrans
- Geology
- 1 June 1996
Estimates of low-flow quantiles, such as the 7-day, 10-year low flow, which are usually obtained by statistical modeling of observed data series, are widely used in water quality management. This… Expand
Hydraulic Resistance in Grass Swales Designed for Small Flow Conveyance
- J. Kirby, S. Durrans, Robert K. Pitt, P. Johnson
- Environmental Science
- 2005
Grass swales, originally used for erosion control in agricultural settings, are now widely employed in urban environments as an effective best management practice for controlling pollutants in… Expand
Regionalization of Low-Flow Frequency Estimates: AN Alabama Case Stui)y
- S. Durrans, S. Tomic
- Mathematics
- 1 February 1996
: Low-flow estimates, as determined by probabilistic modeling of observed data sequences, are commonly used to describe certain streamflow characteristics. Unfortunately, however, reliable low-flow… Expand
