Generalized storage-reliability-yield relationships

TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed approximate but general expressions which describe the over-year S-R-Y relationship when annual streamflows are log normal and follow a first-order autoregressive model.

Reservoir storage capacity with gamma inflows

TL;DR: In this paper, the distribution of the storage capacity of reservoirs with gamma inflows that are either independent or first-order autoregressive was investigated for both full and partial regulation and for the entire realistic range of the lag-one autocorrelation coefficient.

Uncertainty analysis for water supply reservoir yields

TL;DR: In this paper, an empirical global relationship between reservoir storage capacity, water supply yield and reliability based on a global database of 729 rivers Monte Carlo simulations reveal that the coefficient of variation of estimates of water supply reservoir yields depend only on the length of streamflows record and the coefficients of variations of the streamflows used to estimate the yield.

Generalized probability distribution of reservoir capacity

TL;DR: In this article, the estimate of reservoir capacity required to meet a prescribed demand for a given model of annual inflows is a random variable and the probability distribution and parameters of this ideal reservoir capacity are determined by simulation experiments using synthetic streamflow series generated by four different models.

Storage Capacity for River Reservoirs by Wavelet-Based Generation of Sequent-Peak Algorithm

TL;DR: A hybrid technique based on wavelets, which are functions of zero-mean and finite variance, and it generatessynthetic sequent-peak algorithms, which suggests that the technique can be a useful tool in the selection of a storage capacity for the design of a river reservoir.

The Asymptotic Distribution of the Range of Sums of Independent Random Variables

TL;DR: In this paper, the asymptotic distribution of the range and normalized range of the sum of $n$ independent variables is derived using the theory of Brownian motion, which is a well-known technique in statistical analysis.
