2	Fitting extreme value distributions to the Zambezi River flood water levels recorded at Katima Mulilo in Namibia (1965-2003) Kamwi, Innocent Silibelo January 2005 (has links) >Magister Scientiae - MSc / This study sought to identify and fit the appropriate extreme value distribution to flood data, using the method of maximum likelihood. To examine the uncertainty of the estimated parameters and evaluate the goodness of fit of the model identified. The study revealed that the three parameter Weibull and the generalised extreme value (GEV) distributions fit the data very well. Standard errors for the estimated parameters were calculated from the empirical information matrix. An upper limit to the flood levels followed from the fitted distribution.
