Common Mistakes to Avoid

Entering values in wrong units for Flood Frequency Analysis

Check the expected unit for each input field (shown as suffix). Converting between imperial and metric units before entering values prevents calculation errors.

Dividing by zero or entering zero for a denominator field

Ensure denominator values (divisors) are non-zero. The calculator validates this, but understanding which fields cannot be zero helps interpret results correctly.
