Estimate the flood coincidence risk for pairs of stations in an area/river of your choosing.
There is a maximum 3000 words limit without references
You may use the R code provided in Lecture 9 to do your analysis; however you are not allowed to use the same data as the Lecture 9 lecture and practical. If you wish to study the Colorado river (like in the Lecture 9 practical) you may choose other stations to do your analysis.
The report should have the following sections and the associated marks for each section are shown in the brackets.
