Both were applied to Campo de Dallas and the southern edge of the Sierra de Gador, a semiarid Mediterranean area. Though the partial duration series is clearly superior when measuring oyer a short period of time, the Gumbel distribution for extreme annual values has the advantage of simplicity . and speed of application for longer duration series.}, publisher = {Sociedad Geológica de España}, title = {Precipitaciones máximas en el Campo de Dalias y vertiente meridional de la Sierra de Gádor (Almería)}, title = {Extreme rainfall in Campo de Dalias and Southern edge of Sierra de Gador (Almería)}, author = {Martín Rosales, Wenceslao and Pulido Bosch, Antonio and Vallejos, Ángela and López Chicano, Manuel}, }
