| Abstract | This paper deals with the flow duration curves and stream flow
variability index of the Chao Phya River Basin for two different observed periods, 1905-56 and 1952-63. Stream flow variability indices,
non-dimensional ratios which reflect the slope of the flow duration
curves, were determined and the factors that affect the indices were
examined.
It is a common deficiency in Southeast Asia that the stream flow
records, if not available, are of relatively short periods. To overcome this deficiency, correlation analysis between short-term and longterm records were set up, from which the flow relationships were established. Using the flow duration curves of long-term records as an
argument, the flow duration curves of short-term records were extended
to a longer period and the stream flow variability index of the extended
period was re-examined. |
