Estimation of confidence interval for hydrological design value for somen continuous distributions under complete and censored samples

摘要

The quantile of a probability distribution, known as return period or hydrological design value of a hydrological variable is the value corresponding to fixed non-exceedence probability and is very important notion in hydrology. In hydraulic engineering design and water resources management, confidence interval (CI) estimation for a population quantile is of primary interest and among other applications, is used to assess the pollution level of a contaminant in water, air etc. The accuracy on su
