Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Hydrology Study: A Multipurpose Program for Selected Cumulative Probability-Distribution Analyses
The edp programs described in this technical paper: (l) Transfer usgs taped data directly to punched cards ready for processing, (2) perform all the statistical computations needed to obtain the maximum annual vol ume of flow at each selected percent chance for the 10 listed periods, and (3) plot the computed results on log normal probability charts. The principal program (0872) uses the two-parameter gamma distribution to compute the 0 to 99-percent chance events unless the gamma shape factor exceeds 51; then it uses the log normal distribution. The program devel ops a wide range of statistics that apply to most cumulative probability distribution analyses of natural data in the earth-science field.
