THE FLOOD WAVES ANALYSIS AT TURULUNG GAUGING STATION ON TUR RIVER

Abstract

The flood waves analysis at Turulung hydrometric station on Tur River. The analysis of the flood waves has been done using the data recorded for a period of 18 years, between 1979 and 1996. Thus, in each year, two of the largest floods have been evaluated, in order to obtain several characteristics such as the maximum discharge values, the increasing and decreasing time and also the frequency of occurrence during different seasons. A particular analysis has been made in respect with the defence levels at the hydrometric station and the maximum discharge values.
