- Title
Statistical assessment of relationships between water flow in a river and water turbidity in water intakes.
- Authors
Dolgonosov, B.; Korchagin, K.
- Abstract
Probability distributions of water flow and its turbidity after passing through water intake structures are considered. Heavy tails with a power distribution are shown to exist. These distributions are used to find the dependence between water turbidity at the inlet to the water station and water flow in the river. Quantiles of these distributions are estimated to characterize the levels of water flow and turbidity with a given exceedance probability.
