%X The moment (MOM) estimators for the parameters, quantiles and confidence limits, using the general extreme value distribution for the minima, is presented towards its application in low flow frequency analysis. The procedures to compute the parameters, design events (quantiles) for several return periods and their confidence limits are shown in the paper. Two measures of goodness of fit tests are contained in the paper to compare the proposed methodology with other models in competition. A full example of application is presented in the paper to show how easy is to apply the proposed methodology.
