exceedance probability Explanation: ВП - вероятность превышения -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 12 мин (2023-02-16 12:18:42 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Exceedance probability is used in planning for potential hazards such as river and stream flooding, hurricane storm surges and droughts, planning for reservoir storage levels and providing homeowners and community members with risk assessment. This probability gives the chance of occurrence of such hazards at a given level or higher. Exceedance probability can be calculated as a percentage of given flow to be equaled or exceeded. This probability measures the chance of experiencing a hazardous event such as flooding. Factors needed in its calculation include inflow value and the total number of events on record. https://sciencing.com/calculate-exceedance-probability-53658... |
