Book excerpt: This study presents a regional frequency analysis of Tennessee using the well-known Bulletin-17B method standardly used in the United States and the relatively new and developing L-Moments methods. Flood frequency characteristics were defined for 416 gaging stations located primarily in rural and lightly developed areas of Tennessee. All the gaging stations have 10 or more years of record through 2006. Using the L-Moments method, the generalized extreme value distribution was identified as the most robust distribution for each of four hydrologic areas. Multiple regression equations were also calculated for estimating the flood frequency of ungaged, unregulated, rural streams in each of the four hydrologic areas of Tennessee. Regression equations were computed using the ordinary least squares regression procedure. The standard error of prediction for the regression equations were calculated and used to compare the Bulletin 17B and L-Moments methods. This is the first study to indicate that the L-Moments method is, on average, the better of the two methods tested for predicting flood frequency for unregulated streams and rivers in Tennessee.

This book was released on 1982 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Engineers involved in bridge, culvert and highway design often find it necessary to know the magnitude and frequency of discharge from small streams where the drainage basin is urbanized. In order to develop an adequate method for determining the frequency of floods on small streams in Tennessee, where urbanization is a factor, a considerable amount of runoff data are needed. At present there is a scarcity of runoff data from urban areas in Tennessee except in large metropolitan areas. With this in mind the U.S. Geological Survey and the Tennessee Department of Transportation entered into a cooperative agreement in July 1977 to collect data on streams draining less than about 25 mi squared in municipalities with populations ranging between 5,000 i and 100,000. The data collected under this project, in combination with urban runoff data collected in Memphis, Nashville and Knoxville, will give a full spectrum of runoff conditions likely to be experienced in Tennessee. A total of 22 sites have been instrumented across the State as shown in figure 1. Each of the four hydrologic areas as defined in the report "Technique for Estimating Magnitude and Frequency of Floods in Tennessee," 1976, by Randolph and Gamble is represented.

This book was released on 1984 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Engineers involved in bridge, culvert, and highway design often need to know the magnitude and frequency of discharge from small streams where the drainage basin is urbanized. To develop reliable methods for determining the frequency of floods on small streams in Tennessee where urbanization is a factor, considerable amounts of runoff data are needed. However, long-term runoff data from urban areas in Tennessee have not been collected except in large urban areas. To improve the reliability of estimating flood peaks in all urban areas of Tennessee, the U.S. Geological Survey and the Tennessee Department of Transportation began a program in July 1977 to collect concurrent rainfall-runoff data on streams draining less than about 25 square miles in urban areas with populations between 5,000 and 100,000. These rainfall-runoff data will be used to calibrate a U.S. Geological Survey Rainfall-Runoff Model to estimate synthetic urban flood data statewide.
