This paper is sets-out for the regional frequency analysis of daily maximum rainfall from the 27 rain gauge stations in Haryana using L-moments. As the distribution of rainfall varies spatially in Haryana, the 27 rain gauge stations are grouped into three clusters namely, cluster C1, C2 and C3 using Ward’s clustering method and homogeneity of clusters was confirmed using L-moments-based Heterogeneity measure (H). Using goodness-of-fit measure ( DIST Z ) and L-moment ratios diagram, suitable regional frequency distributions were selected among five candidate distributions;Generalized Logistic (GLO), Generalized Extreme Value (GEV),Generalized Normal (GNO), Generalized Pareto (GPA), and Pearson Type-3 (PE3) for each cluster. Results showed that PE3 and GNO were good fitted regional distribution for the cluster C1 and GEV, PE3 and GNO fitted for cluster C2 while for cluster C3; GLO and GEV were good fitted regional distribution. To select a robust distribution among good fitted distributions accuracy measures calculated using Monte Carlo simulations for each cluster. The simulation result showed that PE3 was the best choice for quantile estimation for cluster C1. For cluster C2, PE3 was the best choicefor a large return period and GEV was best for a small return period. For cluster C3, GEV was the most suitable distribution for quantile estimation. Using these robust distributions rainfall quantiles were estimated at each rain gauge station from 2 to 100 year return periods. These estimated rainfall quantiles may be rough guideline for planning and designing hydraulic structures by policy makers and structural engineers.

A kernel conditional quantile estimate of a real-valued non-stationary spatial process is proposed for a prediction goal at a non-observed location of the underlying process. The originality is based on the ability to take into account some local spatial dependency. Large sample properties based on almost complete and \(L^q\)-consistencies of the estimator are established. A numerical study is given in order to illustrate the performance of our methodology.
