| 2014/06/01 - 2014/12/31 | Thesis topic: Drought Modelling. Some example applications. Evaluate consequences of droughts due to hydrological changes
when a dam with a regulation reservoir is built, in particular the number of drought events and their intensity that occur
downstream of the dam. To that end it has to be compared the drought events that occur after the dam construction and the
drought events that would occur if there were no dam. Such study is elaborated using the SPI (Standardized Precipitation Index)
applied to flows series in natural and modified stream.

| 2011/06/01 - 2011/10/31 | Thesis Topic: Statistical modeling of flows and flood volumes in mainland Continental Portugal: conventional and bivariate
analysis. The hydrologic design often requires the estimation of peak flood discharges for different
return periods. One of the statistical procedures mostly used for that purpose is the frequency
distribution analysis applied to annual maximum instantaneous discharges. However, the
length of the available samples of such discharges is often too small to validate the statistical
inference.
