Abstract/Summary

The aim of this report is to identify the most appropriate approach to quantifying return periods of long duration rainfall. The Data and Methods sections describe the data used to test the range of distributions and goodness-of-fit measures. Results are presented which identify the most appropriate distribution for nationally consistent applications, before the key findings are summarised.
