abstract

  • Surveys applications of POME with particular reference to 1) derivation of frequency distributions, 2) parameter estimation, 3) evaluation of data acquisition systems, 4) derivation of functional relationships, and 5) assessment of uncertainty. It is shown that POME offers a unified approach to derivation of a numer of frequency distributions used for hydrological analysis.-from Authors
