1 Introduction
1.1 Background
In India, important hydraulic structures for irrigation, water supply and hydropower are
designed depending on the size of the structure and depending on the risk involved in an
event of failure. Accordingly, BIS: 11223, 1985 prescribes the Standard Project Flood (SPF)
and Probable Maximum Flood (PMF) as design flood for intermediate and large dams
respectively. The PMP is defined as the greatest depth of precipitation, which is
meteorologically possible for a given duration over a particular catchment area (WMO,
2009). In the design of small structures, some calculated risk is taken and for that reason,
estimates of maximum point or areal rainfalls for different return periods are used. The
design rainfall studies for many individual river catchments throughout India, where dams
and other water resources projects were built have been carried out by a number of
researchers notably from the Central Water Commission (CWC), the India Meteorological
Department (IMD), the Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology (IITM) and the National
Institute of Hydrology (NIH). Further, these are published in various reports and journals.
Recognizing the importance of PMP studies in dam design works in recent years there have
been major efforts by CWC, Government of India, New Delhi on the preparation of the PMP
atlases for different river basins of India. The purpose is to develop standardized procedures
for estimation of design rainfalls and PMP for various durations at different places in a river
basin so that consistent results can be achieved and amount of subjectivity is reduced.
Consequently, CWC under the Dam Safety Assurance and Rehabilitation Project conducted
the study on preparation of PMP atlases for the six river basins (Cauvery, Godavari,
Mahanadi, Chambal, Narmada-Tapi and the West flowing rivers of Western Ghats) through
WAPCOS (I), Ltd. in 1998 (WAPCOS, 1998). Similar studies for Krishna and Indus River
basins were carried out by IITM, Pune (IITM, 2007).
It is expected that some more severe storms might have occurred since the publication of
PMP atlases in 1998. With reference to the above, CWC desired that all the six existing PMP
atlases prepared by WAPCOS should be updated by using additional storms that have
occurred since the PMP atlases were published in 1998. The work of updating the six PMP
atlases together with the preparation of new PMP atlases for the Ganga and the
Brahmaputra River basins was awarded to RMSI Pvt. Ltd., Noida by CWC, New Delhi.
It may be mentioned that the updating work of the above PMP atlases will not only include
analysis based on updated data. It will also cover all works as detailed below for the
preparation of new atlases for the Ganga and Brahmaputra River basins. The different river
basins of India are shown in Figure 1.1. This report pertains to Godavari River Basin along
with small part of Independent rivers draining between outlets of Godavari and Krishna
Rivers.
loop. After flowing for a total length of 274 km in Madhya Pradesh, it forms the boundary
between Madhya Pradesh and Maharashtra for about 32 km. It then continues to flow south
for another 188 km to join the Wardha.
After the confluence of Wainganga and Wardha, the river is called Pranhita, which flows for
113 km along the border between Maharashtra and Andhra Pradesh before falling into the
Godavari at an elevation of 107 m.
The Indravati rises at an altitude of 914 m in the Kalahandi district of Odisha on the western
slopes of the Eastern Ghats. It flows westwards through Koraput and Bastar districts and
turns south. It joins the Godavari at an elevation of 82 m and about 531 km from its source.
The important tributaries of the Indravati are Narangi, Boardhing, Kotri and Bandia from its
right and Nandira from its left.
The Sabari, also known as the Kolab, is one of the important tributaries of the Godavari. The
Sabari rises at an altitude of 1,372 m in the Sinkaram hill range of the Eastern Ghats. After
flowing for a short distance in the northwesterly and westerly directions it turns south and
joins the Godavari about 418 km from its source at an altitude of 25 m about 97 km
upstream of Rajahmundry.
heaviest rainfall and the dampest climate in the basin. The interior of the basin is a plateau,
the greater part of which is at an elevation of 300 to 600 m with its general slope eastwards.
Great undulating plains, divided from each other by flat-topped ranges of hills, are the chief
characteristics of this plateau. The Eastern Ghats, which form the eastern boundary of the
peninsula, are not continuous as the Sahyadri range on the west. They rise from the plains
of East Godavari and Visakhapatnam to the level of the table land of Jeypore. The northern
boundary of the basin comprises a series of table-lands varying in elevation from 600 to
1,200 m. To the south, lie great stretches of plains at an elevation of more than 300 m
interspersed with and surrounded by hill ranges, some bare and rocky, but generally covered
with forests and scrub jungles. The delta of the Godavari consists of a wide belt of river
borne alluvium formed by deposits at the mouth of the river over the ages.
2.3 Climate
The Godavari basin has a tropical climate. The basin receives a major part of its rainfall
during the southwest monsoon period. The other rainy seasons are not so well defined and
well spread as the southwest monsoon season. The annual rainfall of the Godavari basin
varies from 3,000 mm to 600 mm. The Sahyadri range of the Western Ghats receives the
heaviest rainfall and has the dampest climate in the basin. Hardly 50 to 60 km east of the
Ghats lie the sparsely cultivated and undulating plains of the Deccan, with a dry climate. The
mean annual surface temperature in the Western Ghats area is about 24 °C and it increases
gradually towards the east and attains a maximum of 29 °C on the East Coast. During
January, the mean daily minimum temperature increases from west to east from 15 °C on
the Western Ghats to about 18 °C on the East Coast. The mean maximum daily temperature
generally exceeds 30 °C in the western part of the Godavari basin and it is only slightly less
than 30 °C in the eastern part.
Small part of Independent rivers draining between outlets of Godavari and Krishna rivers
have been included with Catchment-317. The east flowing rivers between Mahanadi and
Godavari River Basins have been included in the atlas of Mahanadi and adjoining rivers.
2.5 Climatology
2.5.1 RAINFALL DATA
Rainfall and other meteorological data are needed to estimate the PMP and design storm
rainfalls for different return periods. Because of practical necessity for hydrological and
agricultural studies, rainfall is measured at a number of stations in India. These rainfall
stations are maintained by various official agencies such as IMD, Railways, PWD, and
Agriculture and Revenue departments in the different states. IMD offers necessary
assistance and technical advice to official agencies. As a result, in India considerable data
on rainfall are available for several stations with the National Data Center (NDC), IMD, Pune.
This data has been used in the preparation of the PMP atlas for the Godavari River Basin.

storms from the Bay of Bengal move across the country. The main synoptic situations of the
southwest monsoon system that produce heavy rainfall over the Godavari River Basin are:
1. Formation and subsequent movement of monsoon depressions, low-pressure
systems from the head of Bay of Bengal,
2. Upper air cyclonic circulation over the Peninsula,
3. Well marked seasonal trough in a southerly position, and
4. Trough off the west coast of the peninsula

3.1.6 RAINSTORM TRANSPOSITION ADJUSTMENTS
The main purpose of rainstorm transposition is to increase rainstorm experience of an area
by considering not only the rainstorm, which have occurred over and near the area in the
past, but also those rainstorms, which have resulted in heavy rainfall on adjacent areas that
are meteorologically homogeneous. Rainstorm transposition technique is generally applied
to such areas, which have markedly irregular shapes or peculiar orientation. Before applying
the storm transposition technique, following corrections wherever required are to be
considered along with the transposition guidelines as given below.
When no severe rainstorm has occurred in the study area then the nearest available storm
from a meteorologically homogeneous region has to be physically moved to the area under
study. This movement is called transposition of the storm. Important guidelines to storm
transposition needed to be considered are:
(i) Coastal storms should not be transposed to inland areas. Such storms should be
considered for transposition along coastal areas, (ii) storms occurring over mountains should
not be transposed to plains or mountainous areas and (iii) transposition should be avoided if
it requires crossing a barrier having an elevation of more than 800 m. If hill ranges are of
lower elevations transposition may be carried out with the application of suitable adjustment
factors as discussed in the following sections.

rainstorm occurred.
Various aspects of elevation barriers h1 and h2 can be understood from the following Figure
3-4:
Before averaging, the dew point values are reduced pseudo-adiabatically to the 1,000 hPa
level, so that dew points for stations at different elevations are comparable. The amount of
moisture in the air can be obtained from the single observation of dew point temperature, but
these have certain synoptic limitations and are also susceptible to observational error. The
moisture itself must be such that it persists for a period of several hours rather than minutes.
Thus, the dew point values used to estimate moisture during the storm as well as over the
specific area is based on three or more consecutive dew point values over a reasonable time
interval. The value of the dew point so obtained is called the persisting dew point. Various
meteorological departments worldwide publish the daily dew point data for meteorological
stations. The daily dew point data during a storm period can be collected from such
publications. The general practice is to use the 12-hour or 24-hour persisting dew point. The
maximum persisting 24-hour dew point can be obtained from the series of dew point
temperatures on days as shown in Table 3-1.
Table 3-1: Dew point temperatures (oC) at 24-hour interval
Time (IST) 0830 1730 0830 1730 0830 1730 0830 1730

o
Maximum Persisting dew point ( C) at 1730 hrs 24
o
Maximum 24 hr Persisting dew point ( C) 24
In determining the persisting dew point, the consecutive dew points during a 24-hour period
are examined for their reliability and the lowest of these values is selected. The highest
persisting 24-hour dew point for the above series is 24°C.
3.1.9 MAXIMUM PERSISTING 24-HOUR 1,000 HPA DEW POINTS
For obtaining the maximum persisting dew point for any specific area, the long period (say,
20 to 30 years) dew points at several stations within the study area are scanned for a period
of 15 days during which the storm has occurred. For example, if the storm has occurred
during the period August 10-12, the data for the period of August 3 to August 17 is scanned
and the highest persisting dew point for each year for each station is determined. From
these values, the maximum dew point is selected.
Most recently in 2000, India Meteorological Department (IMD) has published fortnightly
maps of the maximum persisting dew point temperatures (for 24 hrs and at 1,000 hPa) for
entire India (IMD, 2000). These maps are based on long-term dew point temperature data.
Total twenty four maps are available corresponding to every fortnight of twelve months of the
year. Prior to these maps, the monthly time step maps were available from various sources
(such as Rakhecha and Kennedy (1985) and Rakhecha et al. (1990)). Because of the recent
publication and availability at fortnight level, fortnightly maps have been used in the current
study for estimating maximum persisting dew point temperature at rainstorm centres and
transposed locations. The map for the first fortnight of June is shown in Figure 3-5. The
maximum persisting dew point temperature maps for 24 hr corresponding to 1,000 hPa for
every fortnight for the months of June to October are shown in Figure 1-18 to Figure 1-27 of
Volume II.
On the basis of SPS and PMP analysis, 16 out of 84 storms have been found to be critical
(contributing to SPS and PMP computations for sub basins and grid points). These 16 critical
storms have been marked with blue color text in Table 3-2 as given below. Out of these 16
storms, three storms (June 1927, September 1959 and July 1989) have been adopted from
IMD, four storms (September 1926, July 1930, July 1941 and July 1965) have been adopted
from IITM Atlas and 3 storms (July 1930, September 1961 and August 1986) have been
adopted from previous WAPCOS study. The source of above mentioned storms has been
mentioned in title of the respective map of isohyetal pattern in Volume II. Remaining six
critical storms (August 1983, July 1988, July 1994, June 1996, July 2000 and June 2001)
have been generated on geo spatial analysis using daily-observed rainfall data in and
around study basin. Patterns of all these critical storms along with their DADs have been
reviewed in consultation with IMD before using in the SPS and PMP estimation.

*Recommendations of the workshop on rationalization of design storm parameters for design flood estimation (Central Water Commission,
1993) suggests that where the dew point data is not available for base estimation of moisture maximization, a value of 25% for inland areas
and relatively lesser values of 10% for coastal areas may be adopted. *In the case of above-mentioned three storms, a maximization factor of
20% was assumed.

Using the listed storms, envelope curves for the basin were derived for 1-day, 2-day and 3-
day durations. The storms contributing to the envelope curves of the catchment have been
listed in Table 3-11 to Table 3-13 for 1-day, 2-day and 3-day durations respectively.
Envelope DAD curves for the catchment for 1-day, 2-day and 3-day durations are shown in
Figure 3-31 to Figure 3-33.
The insitu Standard Project Storm (SPS) were read from corresponding DAD envelope
curves of the basin for 1-day, 2-day and 3-day durations separately. These SPS (insitu)

3.5.2 IDENTIFICATIONS OF RAINSTORMS
Out of the storms listed in Table 3-2, a grid point wise matrix was prepared for identification
of affecting rainstorms for 1-day, 2-day and 3-day durations at each location. The storms that
fell within the limit of ± 2-degree were marked as affecting storms at each location. Table 3-
30 gives the matrix of grid wise affecting storms for 1-day duration (The rows indicate the
storm details, columns indicate the grid ID and highlighted color shows the storm affecting
particular grids). Similarly, the matrixes for 2-day and 3-day storms are shown in Table 3-31
and Table 3-32 respectively.

3.5.6 SPECIAL GRID POINT FOR HIGH RAINFALL AREAS OF UPPER GODAVARI
From Figure 1-7 in Volume II, it can be clearly seen that areas near the ridge line of the
Upper Godavari catchment (area near around Igatpuri on the ridge of Western Ghats)
experience heavy rainfall as compared to its surrounding areas. These surrounding areas
are characterized by rain shadow areas on the leeward side across the ridgeline.
In order to reflect these high rainfall characteristics, an additional grid point (Figure 3-41)
was added at location 73.5° E and 19.5° N about 20 km west of the ridge on the windward
side and the severe storms occurring on the west coast were transposed here.
To estimate PMP value at this location, severe rainstorms of West Coast were considered.
Out of these, rainstorm of Dharampur-1941 is found to be the most critical. This rainstorm
should not be moved in east to west direction towards the Godavari Basin, but it can be
moved in north-south direction. The distance between this grid point and the rainstorm
centre is around 120 km. So, the 1941 storm was transposed to this particular grid point. The
TAF and MMF for the 1941 storm at this particular grid point is 1.02 and 1.21 respectively.
The estimated 1, 2 and 3-day PMP estimates at the grid point are given in Table 3-39.

storm durations in seven catchments of Godavari basin using hourly rainfall data from SRRG
stations.
SRRG station rainfall data, as described in section 2.5.2, has been used in the TD analysis.
Based on data availability, 12, 24, 48, and 72 hour TD analysis was carried out. Rain spells
having 24-hour total rainfall of 60 mm or more were considered in the analysis. Similarly,
rainspells having 12-hour, 48-hour, and 72-hour total rainfall values of 40 mm, 80 mm, and
100 mm or more have been used. An hourly rainfall data of each station in a particular
catchment were first arranged in a chronological order. After this, the maximum hourly
rainfall totals for each hour in considered durations (12, 24, 48, and 72 hours) were
computed. The averages of hourly rainfalls were then obtained from number of stations in
the respective catchment. These average values were further expressed as a percentage of
total storm rainfall amount for duration considered (12, 24, 48, and 72 hours). Finally,
percent values were adjusted to derive a smoothened TD curve for each catchment and
duration considered (12, 24, 48, and 72 hours).
As described above the TD analysis was performed for 12-hour duration. Table 3-40
presents the catchment and station wise list of rain spells used in the analysis. The
smoothened time distribution coefficients for entire Godavari basin and various catchments
have been given in Table 3-41. The relevant smoothened TD curves are shown in Figure 3-
42 to Figure 3-49. The hourly rainfall distribution for each of the considered rainspells,
average rainfall distribution and average TD coefficients for various catchments are given in
Table 5-1 to Table 5-7 in Annexure (at the end of this report).
For 24-hour duration, Table 3-42 presents the catchment and station wise list of rain spells
used in the analysis. The smoothened time distribution coefficients for entire Godavari basin
and various catchments have been given in Table 3-43. This table also gives the TD
coefficients for rainspells less than 250 mm and more than 250 mm at entire Godavari basin
level. The relevant smoothened TD curves are shown in Figure 3-50 to Figure 3-59. The
hourly rainfall distribution for each of the considered rainspells, average rainfall distribution
and average TD coefficients for various catchments are given in Table 5-8 to Table 5-15 in
Annexure (at the end of this report).
As described above the TD analysis was performed for 48-hour duration. Table 3-44
presents the catchment and station wise list of rain spells used in the analysis. The
smoothened time distribution coefficients for entire Godavari basin and various catchments
have been given in Table 3-45. The relevant smoothened TD curves are shown in Figure 3-
60 to Figure 3-67. The hourly rainfall distribution for each of the considered rainspells,
average rainfall distribution and average TD coefficients for various catchments are given in
Table 5-16 to Table 5-22 in Annexure (at the end of this report).
For 72-hour duration, Table 3-46 presents the catchment and station wise list of rain spells
used in the analysis. The smoothened time distribution coefficients for entire Godavari basin
and various catchments have been given in Table 3-47. The relevant smoothened TD curves
are shown in Figure 3-68 to Figure 3-75. The hourly rainfall distribution for each of the
considered rainspells, average rainfall distribution and average TD coefficients for various
catchments are given in Table 5-23 to Table 5-29 in Annexure (at the end of this report).

Solution: To arrive at the 1-day PMP estimate for the given project site using PMP values
obtained for nearest grid points, following steps are required. Figure 3-97 shows the location
of the Upper Wardha project site and neighbouring 1-degree grid points in the Godavari and
Narmada Basins.
None of the standard grid points as indicated above lie near the centre of the project basin.
The drainage area of the project basin is 4,205 sq. km, which also does not match the
standard area projected in the atlas. In such cases, the estimation of PMP value can be
done by following method:
The PMP values at the 4 grid points identified above corresponding to 4,000 sq. km., 5,000
sq. km. and the interpolated value for 4,205 sq. km. are as given below:
Average of the areal one day PMP for 4,205 sq. km. = (466+486+437+452)/4
= 460 mm
3.9.2 USE OF TRANSPOSITION TECHNIQUE
Problem: To obtain an estimate of 24 hour PMP at Upper and Lower Wardha (Intercepting
Catchments) and Upper Kolab (Free Catchment) Project Sites by the Storm Transposition
Technique as given in Figure 3-98.
Figure 3-98: Locations of Upper Wardha, Lower Wardha, and Upper Kolab projects
These three storms were transposed over the catchment of Upper Wardha and transposed
depths were estimated for the Upper Wardha catchment (Figure 3-102 to Figure 3-104).

Similarly, these three storms were also transposed over the catchment of Lower Wardha and
transposed depths were estimated for the Lower Wardha catchment (Figure 3-105 to Figure
3-107).

The maximum transposed depth using these three storms is given below:
Project Maximum Transposed Depth (mm)
Upper Wardha 338
Lower Wardha (free Catchment) 353
The MAF at the project location for the 18 July 2000 storm was estimated as 1.24.
Multiplying the maximum transposed depth with MAF gave the 1-day PMP.
Project 1-day PMP (mm)
Upper Wardha 419
Lower Wardha (free Catchment) 438
Apply clock hour correction 1.15 to convert 1-day PMP to 24-hour PMP values.
Project 24 hour PMP (mm)

Where, Xt is the rainfall depth for the return period t, and σn respectively are the average
and standard deviation of the series of n annual maximum rainfalls and K is a variable
frequency factor dependent on the probability distribution that fits the extreme value series.
Hershfield (1961) considered that for the PMP estimation there is a value of K which will not
be exceeded say Km and the used eqn. (4.1) in the following form:
(4.2)
Where:
Xpmp = is the PMP rainfall for a given station for a given duration,
= the average of the series of n annual maximum rainfalls for a given station for a given
duration,
σn = the standard deviation of the series of n annual maximum rainfalls for a given
duration,
Km = the frequency factor which is the largest of all the calculated Km values for all stations
in a given area.
The value of factor Km for a station is calculated using the following equation.
(4.3)
Where:
Xmax = is the highest recorded value from the series of n annual maximum rainfalls,
= the average value of n-1 annual maximum rainfalls excluding the highest value of
Xmax and
σn-1 = the standard deviation of n-1 annual maximum rainfalls excluding the highest value of
Xmax
Hershfield (1961) used 1-day rainfall data from about 2,700 stations in many countries and
found that K values as calculated from eqn. 4.3 ranged from less than 3 to a highest value of
15. Hershfield used the highest value of 15 to estimate PMP for 1 day duration for different
stations in the world by adopting the formula:
(4.4)
Several investigators questioned the universal applicability of Km = 15 for the calculation of
the PMP because of the fact that unusually high values of PMP were obtained on using the
highest value of 15. Hershfield (1965) himself found that use of the common value of Km =
15 was not appropriate because on representing graphically Km as a function of for
various durations (5 min, 1, 6,12 hours) and the wrapping of the frequency factors as shown
in Figure 4-1, he noted that as the average of the series ( ) increased in magnitude, K Km
values had a tendency to decrease. Thus, each station has its own Km value depending
upon its magnitude of . Subsequently, Hershfield (1965) used the enveloping Km curve
for obtaining Km values for different values of .
Figure 4-1: Km as a function of rainfall duration and mean annual series (after Hershfield)
The above mentioned statistical estimation procedure of the PMP can be used where
sufficient rainfall data is available and in particular to make rapid estimates or where other
meteorological data (dew point, wind records etc.) are missing.
4.1.3 RAINFALL DATA USED
Daily rainfall data of 343 rainfall stations distributed over different catchments of the
Godavari River Basin were used (see Table 4-1). The names of the stations and their length
of record are listed in Table 1-1 in Volume II and their geographical locations are shown in
Figure 2-2. Data required for the PMP estimation is the series comprising of annual
maximum rainfalls for a given duration at an observing rainfall station. This consists of a
sequence of rainfalls formed by selecting the highest of the 365 daily rainfall values for a
given duration for each year of record. Thus for n years of data the annual maximum series
will consist of n rainfall values. As such, the annual maximum rainfall values for 1, 2 and 3-
day durations for each year were selected for all stations and arrays of annual maximum
values of rainfall were formed for these three durations for each station to estimate PMP for
1 to 3-day durations following the method discussed in section 4.2.

give realistic estimates of PMP for different durations. As such, appropriate enveloping Km
curves showing the relationship between Km and the average annual maximum rainfalls for
1, 2, and 3 days durations were determined.
The values of Km for all the stations in the Godavari River Basin were plotted separately
against for 1, 2 and 3-day durations. The enveloping curves were then drawn with the
help of the upper most points, which are shown in Figures 4-2 to 4-4. These enveloping
curves were used to obtain Km values corresponding to the average of annual maximum
rainfall series ( ) for 1, 2 and 3-day durations for PMP computations for different stations to
compute the PMP values.

To see the extent of variations in the magnitudes of point PMP values with reference to the
highest observed rainfalls recorded at the station, a summary table (Table 4-4) has been
prepared. This table gives the minimum, maximum and average values of highest observed
rainfall (Pmax), point PMP estimate and ratio of PMP/Pmax for various catchments and
durations. To elaborate more, if a catchment has 25 stations, the point PMP and highest
rainfall are tabulated for each station and minimum, maximum and average values are
picked for a catchment from 25 stations. A ratio (PMP/Pmax) is estimated for each station
individually. The minimum, maximum and average values of PMP/Pmax from 25 individual
stations are picked up for deriving catchment summary.

In order to make available these PMP estimates for the use of design engineers, generalized
point PMP maps for 1, 2 and 3-day durations have been prepared. The purpose of these
maps is to eliminate the amount of subjectivity in PMP estimation so that uniform practices
and consistent results can be achieved. The PMP estimates for 1, 2 and 3-day durations for
all stations were first plotted on separate base maps of the Godavari River Basin. Isopleths
of suitable intervals were then drawn taking into account the topography of the basin. Before
drawing the isopleths of PMP, the CV values for all stations were plotted on separate base
maps for 1, 2 and 3-day durations to see whether the CV value for a station was abnormally
different from nearby stations. This is required for smoothing the inherent errors indicated by
large standard deviations. As an example, if in a certain area, the CV values of different
stations were of the order of say 40 to 45 % while an odd station in the area has its CV value
of 60% then its CV value was adjusted to 45 %. Using this revised value of CV the standard
deviation (σn) was recalculated using the original value of for that station. The revised σn
value was then used to re-compute PMP estimates for those stations whose σn values were
adjusted. The resulting maps for 1 to 3-day durations are shown in Volume II (Figure 6-31 to
Figure 6-33).
The generalized maps of point PMP are useful for obtaining PMP values for durations of 1 to
3 days at any location in the Godavari River Basin without undertaking detailed statistical
analysis of rainfall data. The point estimates can be converted to areal PMP estimates by
using areal reduction factors. Two methods, as described below, may be used to obtain
areal average PMP for any catchment area.
- Calculate the average PMP value over the catchment area and then apply areal
reduction factors: or
- Use the highest PMP in the catchment and then apply the areal reduction factors.
If a hydro meteorological variable (X) equal to or greater than x occurs on the average once
in T years, then the probability of occurrence P(X ≥ x) of such a variable is
1
P ( X x) (4.4)
T

T (4.5)
P ( X x)
The probability that x will not occur is
P ( X x) 1 P ( X x ) (4.6)

T

The concept of a return period does not imply that an event of a determined value occurs at
regular intervals of T years or that having occurred once, it will not occur again for the next T
years. It means that when calculated over a long period of record the probable mean interval
between two events of the determined magnitude is equal to the return period T. For
example, a rainfall value of the 30-year return period over a long period of record, say 600
years, will occur 20 times or in any one year there is a 3.3 percent chance that a rainfall of
this value will occur P = 1/T= 1/30= 3.3%. Furthermore, it says nothing as to by what amount
and how many times can this rainfall value be exceeded during a period of 30 years?
The standard method for estimation of rainfalls for different return periods is to fit a
theoretical frequency distribution to the annual maximum rainfall data series and estimate
parameters by the statistical methods. The choice of an appropriate distribution is often
difficult because of the many distributions in use. Of the many existing theoretical
distributions amongst these include, lognormal, Gumbel, log Gumbel, Pearson type III, log
Pearson type III, Weibull, GEV and so on. Huff and Neill (1959) compared several frequency
distributions for the determination of rainfall frequency relations using rainfall data of stations
in Illinois in the USA and found that none of the distributions had any marked superiority over
the other. Therefore, the questions of better fit among these several distributions is always
an alternative one and many studies with this theme have been reported. Hershfield and
Kohlar (1960) and Reich (1963) after comparing several distributions concluded that the
Gumbel extreme value distribution fits the data reasonably well. As such the fitting of
Gumbel extreme value distribution has been used to determine the point maximum rainfall
for different return periods.
The fitted distribution can be used not only to interpolate, but also to extrapolate; that is to
find return periods of maximum rainfalls that were not apparent during the relative short
periods of records.

By definition,
x and are the mean and the SD of a given series of data and then parameters (scale
parameter) and u( location parameter) can be obtained. Thus, for any value of X, T can be
calculated. The fitted distribution can be used not only to interpolate but also extrapolate i.e.,
to find return periods of extreme values that were not apparent during the relatively short
periods of records.
4.2.4 ESTIMATION OF PARAMETERS BY L-MOMENTS
L-Moments are based on probability-weighted moments (PWMs), however provide a greater
degree of accuracy and ease. L-Moments are a modification of the PWMs, as they use the
PWMs to calculate parameters that are easier to interpret and that can be used in the
calculation of parameters for statistical distributions. L-Moments are based on linear
combinations of data. They provide an advantage, as they are easy to work with, and more
reliable as they are less sensitive to outliers. The method of L-Moments calculates more
accurate parameters than the Method of Moments (MoM) technique (Kochanek, 2010). The
MoM techniques only apply to a limited range of parameters, whereas L-Moments can be
more widely used, and are nearly unbiased (Rowinski, 2001). The four L-Moments (λ1, λ2,
λ3, λ4) are derived using the four PWMs.

defined as
(4.19)
(4.20)
(4.21)
(4.22)
in which N is the sample size, Q is the data value, and i is the rank of the value in ascending
order. After Estimating the 4 L- Moments ((λ1, λ2, λ3, λ4), the Gumbel parameters α (scale
parameter) and u (location parameter) can be obtained as
λ
(4.23)
(4.24)
in which c=0.58 (Euler’s Constant). In addition to above four movements, L-CV, L-Skewness
and L-Kurtosis are used for the distribution fitting.
L-CV is similar to the normal coefficient of variation (CV). The larger the CV value, the larger
the variation of the data set from the mean. For example, in arid regions that receive few
storm events, the variation will be large, as one storm will deviate greatly from the low mean.

The value of T can be obtained by the use of a plotting position formula. For the Gumbel
model, the Weibull formula is most appropriate.
4.2.6 95 % CONFIDENCE INTERVAL FOR DIFFERENT RETURN PERIOD VALUES BASED ON
GUMBEL DISTRIBUTION
The return periods calculated by the Gumbel method are subject to statistical error because
the estimation is made on the basis of a limited data series. Therefore, there is a change that
the estimated value will be too high or too low. It is necessary to calculate confidence limits
between which the estimated value can be said to lie with a certain probability. To obtain
confidence limits of an estimated rainfall value at any desired level, an estimate of the
standard error of the distribution of parameters is required.
A confidence interval gives an estimated range of values, which is likely to include an
unknown population parameter. The 95% confidence intervals for different return periods
have been computed using Se of estimates.
Return period value for any period can be estimated using the following equation
^ ^
X T u K T
(4.32)
Lowery and Nash (1972) derived the expression for standard error (s.e) for the estimated
^ ^
parameters of u,
stations and rejection of 2 stations. One station was rejected by both tests. Rejected station
was discarded in the analysis.
The data of annual maximum rainfall series for durations of 1, 2 and 3 days for each of the
343 stations were subjected to Gumbel’s distribution and estimates of maximum 1, 2 and 3
day rainfalls for the return periods of 2.33; 5; 10; 25; 50; 100; 500; 1,000; 5,000 and 10,000
were determined. The design rainfalls for different return periods together with their
confidence limits are given Volume II (Table 6-1 to Table 6-3) for 1-day, 2-day and 3-day
respectively.
The maximum 1-day, 2-day and 3-day rainfall values for all stations were plotted for each
return period on separate maps of the Godavari basin and smooth isohyets of rainfall were
then drawn at appropriate intervals so as to prepare generalized maps. The spatial
distribution of the point values of maximum rainfall values for return periods of 2.33; 5; 10;
25; 50; 100; 500; 1,000; 5,000 and 10,000 years are shown in Volume II (Figure 6-1 to
Figure 6-30).
