Salandin, (Tergeste, Trieste), p. 47 (in Italian). The multifractal instantaneous unit hydrograph permits a good assessment of observed hydrographs. It is based on a Γ -type function, expressing the relation of the IUH as a function of time, through a time scale parameter and the maximum Lipschitz-Hölder exponent, by virtue of the link of the last parameter with the minimum probability and the resolution at which the measure is performed.
