Summary
In the previous chapters, we have briefly introduced applications of copulas to analyses of rainfall, streamflow, drought, water quality, and compound extremes, as well as network design. In this chapter, we will introduce suspended sediment transport. Two case studies will be discussed to (i) apply copulas to construct the discharge-sediment rating curve using the Yellow River dataset; and (ii) investigate the dependence among precipitation, discharge, and sediment yield using the event-based dataset retrieved from the flume #3 at Santa Rita experimental watershed.
