Copula‐Based Modeling of Flood Control Reservoirs

Abstract: Copulas are shown in this paper to provide an effective strategy to describe the statistical dependence between peak flow discharge and flood volume featuring hydrographs forcing a flood control reservoir. A 52 year time series of flow discharges observed in the Panaro River (Northern Italian Apennines) is used to fit an event‐based bivariate distribution and to support time‐continuous modeling of a flood control reservoir, located online along the river system. With regard to reservoir performances, a method … Show more

“…Generally, flood control can be faced by a univariate approach relying on peak flow discharge statistics only when the main issue lies within the conveyance capacity of the river cross sections. Otherwise, flood volume is the most significant variable [25]. According to the terrain, river channels, and flood processes characteristics of the study area mentioned in Section 2.1, the flood disaster in the study area is mainly affected by the flood volume, thus, this paper used the flood volume level to determine the flood magnitude.…”

“…Dependence between sites can be modeled by copulas ( Min & Czado, 2010 ; Aghakouchak, 2014 ; Liu et al, 2015 ; Balistrocchi et al, 2017 ; Aranda & García-Bartual, 2018 ; Addo, Chanda & Metcalfe, 2018 ; Wang et al, 2018 ). Hao & Singh (2013) have proposed the maximum entropy copula for multi-site streamflow simulation and shown a reasonable agreement with observed streamflow.…”

“…It was found to provide an effective and straightforward strategy for inferring probability functions from multivariate sample data. Powerful tests developed inside copula framework allowed to investigate the empirical dependence structure in an accurate manner, especially with respect to the evaluation of tail dependencies (Balistrocchi, 2017). The dependence of copula model between intensity and rain fall duration, both properties of marginal distribution and dependence between intensity and storm duration were preserved.…”
