Regional Flood Frequency Analysis in the Upper Mississippi Basin

I worked  here at the University of Texas with Dr. Maidment, Dr.Holley and Dr. Olivera at the center for research in water resources (CRWR) on a project conducting flood frequency analysis in the Mississippi Basin using Geographic Information Systems (GIS). The frequency analysis is on a regional scale showing a relationship between flow, drainage area, duration,and return period.
