Abstract

As explained in Section 7.2 of McMahon and Kiem (2018a), ‘to conduct the more rigorous statistical analysis required to formally prove or disprove, the hypothesis of a nominal 40 year cycle in South East Queensland (SEQ) flooding at least 25–30 samples of 40 year periods containing annual maximum flow data would be required. That corresponds to 1000–1200 years of data which are obviously not available and is the reason simple tests are used in Sections 3–5’.

对Robert French关于“昆士兰东南部大洪水:假设它们随机发生是否有效”的讨论的回应

正如McMahon和Kiem (2018a)第7.2节所解释的那样，“为了进行更严格的统计分析，以正式证明或反驳昆士兰东南部(SEQ)名义40年周期的假设，至少需要25-30个包含年最大流量数据的40年周期样本。”这相当于1000-1200年的数据，而这些数据显然是无法获得的，这就是第3-5节使用简单测试的原因。

期刊介绍： The Australasian Journal of Water Resources ( AJWR) is a multi-disciplinary regional journal dedicated to scholarship, professional practice and discussion on water resources planning, management and policy. Its primary geographic focus is on Australia, New Zealand and the Pacific Islands. Papers from outside this region will also be welcomed if they contribute to an understanding of water resources issues in the region. Such contributions could be due to innovations applicable to the Australasian water community, or where clear linkages between studies in other parts of the world are linked to important issues or water planning, management, development and policy challenges in Australasia. These could include papers on global issues where Australasian impacts are clearly identified.
