Bivariate copula for flood frequency analysis in Johor river basin.

Flooding is a multi-attribute event that is described by many factors such as peak flow and flood volume. It is extremely vital to consider both the flood volume and the flood peak while studying the flood frequency analysis as the univariate analysis cannot accurately portray the flood issue and su...
