Probability, risk and uncertainty analysis for hydrological design

It gives a framework that is financially critical for finding the exceptional designs of hydrological systems with a reduced cost in total inclusive of the project cost and the disaster mitigation cost. But there would be hardly any assessment of a decent quality damage function. Hence, errors in demonstrating the hydrologic events, incorrect model parameters, and so on may occur. Here, we will discuss a specific hydrological design that of a detention basin for studying and understanding the risk-based procedure, uncertainties, and probability analysis by following a systematic framework.
