Аннотация:Statistically treated data of long-term observational series (>30 years) for 66 rivers are used to study the character of distribution of water flow maximums during rain-induced floods in Maritime Territory, Russia. Two probability models are discussed: generalized Pareto distribution (for the domain of very large values) and generalized distribution of extremums (for the rest of the range). The issue of optimal conjunction point of these distributions is discussed. The problem of increasing the accuracy of distribution parameter estimates through data grouping is considered.
