- Statement
- Hydrological flow records were used from the CWC to extract an annual maxima series from 2000-2020 across the state. Catchment descriptors from HydroSHEDS, UN FAO Harmonised World Soil Database, and IMD rainfall products were used to estimate the 2-year flood at ungauged sites. Top-kriging was used to interpolate this to over 300 sites covering the state. Then a regional GEV growth curve was fitted to get other return periods of peak flow.
