Cover Story: This study addresses uncertainty in Regional Frequency Analysis (RFA) by proposing a method to identify statistically homogeneous regions. Annual maxima daily records from 55 meteorological stations and several covariates are used in an iterative clustering process based on network theory. The stations are linked by their co-occurrence frequency to create the network, and communities are formed by maximizing modularity. RFA is applied to these communities using L-moment theory, with quantile uncertainty assessed via parametric bootstrapping. The results show that network-based clustering ensures homogeneous regions, as demonstrated in Thessaly’s complex terrain. View this paper
