Problem The observed annual peak discharges for a stream gaging station are shown in the below for the period from 1982 to 1997. The peak discharge follows a log-Pearson ty distribution with the station skew. Determine the peak discharges, 5% (upper) confid limits and 95% (lower) confidence limits for the 2-, 5-, 10-, 25, 50-, and 100-year flo Annual peak discharges Year 1982 1983 1984 1985 1986 1987 Discharge Year (cfs) 2301 2151 3381 2731 3001 2951 1988 1989 1990 1991 1992 1993 Discharg e (cfs) 3031 1571 3611 4191 3201 2231 Year 1994 1995 1996 1997 Discharge (cfs) 1831 3221 1721 2411
