Abstract

Top-kriging is applied here over the geographical space of Tuscany Region, in Central Italy. The obtained results are compared with classical interpolation techniques (IDW and Ordinary Kriging) and with a Multivariate analysis, based on natural logarithms of seven geomorphoclimatic characteristics. Multivariate statistical techniques such as principal components analysis (PCA) are implemented to reduce the high-dimensionality of catchments descriptors. The results are validated using a cross-validation method. With the aim to define the most suitable procedure for extremes discharge estimation in nested and not nested catchments, the results are compared through different error measurement methods.
