    Abstract

    ![CDATA[This paper examines the effects of spatial variability of three flood-producing variables - rainfall duration, rainfall temporal pattern and initial losses on flood frequency curves using a Monte Carlo Simulation Technique. Conclusions drawn are specific to the study area in Victoria, Australia, and need to be verified for other parts of Australia.]]
