stroomduurcurves
Stroomduurcurves, often referred to in English as flow duration curves (FDCs), are graphical representations that summarize the distribution of river discharge over a chosen time period. The curve shows how discharge magnitude relates to the fraction of time that discharge is equaled or exceeded, providing a compact view of the variability of streamflow at a particular location.
Construction of a stroomduurcurve relies on a long record of discharge data, typically daily or monthly values.
Interpretation and use: Stroomduurcurves characterize the flow regime and are applied in hydrological planning and design.
Limitations and considerations: The method assumes stationarity and can be sensitive to the length and quality
