“…In the conventional stationary analyses for designing hydraulic structures, the terms probability of exceedance, return period, and risk of failure during the design life are widely used. Referring to Chow et al [6], Loaiciga and Mariño [49], Fernández and Salas [23,24], Douglas et al [13], Cooley [9] and references therein for formal introductions, here, we would like to recall and slightly expand the critical discussion reported by Serinaldi [83].…”

“…It can also be understood as the average time until the level x T is exceeded (Stedinger et al, 1993;Reiss and Thomas, 1997) or as the average number of time intervals between occurrence of an event xOx T (for the righthand tail of a distribution; Tallaksen, 2000). For independent and identically distributed (iid) events, these formulations are equivalent (Fernández and Salas, 1999). In that case, the return periods for droughts derived using the threshold level approach can be calculated as (Stedinger et al, 1993;Cunnane, 1979)…”

“…Lohani and Loganathan (1997) forecast drought conditions for future months, based on the current drought class described by the Palmer drought index. Fernández and Salas (1999) presented a method for estimating the return period of droughts when underlying hydrological data series (annual streamflow) are autocorrelated. They assumed that the binary process consisting of dry years (D: X t < x 0 ) and wet years (W: X t ≥ x 0 ) follows a simple (first-order) Markov chain with two states (dry and wet).…”

“…Various authors investigating return periods of droughts have found different levels of persistence in precipitation as well as in streamflow data. The identified order of Markov chain depended on the applied thresholds to distinguish between wet and dry conditions, the analysed time interval and the type of the indicator (Chin 1977, Roldan and Woolhiser 1982, Şen 1990, Fernández and Salas 1999, Cancelliere and Salas 2004, Bayazit and Önöz 2005, Schoof and Pryor 2008, Sharma and Panu 2008, Akyuz et al 2012. Time series of SPI-SRI indicator for the 1966-2006 period were analysed as a discrete-state, discrete-time variable with five possible states S = {0,1,2,3,4}.…”
