When calculating flood recurrence intervals, what is the advantage of having a records extending further back in time (ex. 150 years) rather than a shorter record (ex. 30 years).
Assuming that the Great River has experienced a flood of 5,120 m/s in 2020, in the same 147 years of record, recalculate the recurrence intervals. Add this flood to Table 3 below and complete the missing information. Create an appropriate caption for the table. Make sure to select the proper placement for the caption (Above? Below? To the right?). Ensure that your caption begins with "Table 3:". Show your calculations. Year 2013 Discharge ( ) 5,287 Rank Recurrence Interval (T) 1978 5.774 1947 4,806 1932 6,697 1893 5,334
