| Summary: | The floods are an important phase of the hydrologic regime. Based on both genetically and influential factors, it can be identified several types of floods. The main criterion of analysis is the identification of flood that can be achieved using many methods. The type of flood, the morphology and the goal of analysis are taken into account for the identification of the flood. Then, parameters of the flood hydrograph can be specified, those parameters characterizing the laws of maximum water flow in given section of the river. The parameters estimation implies a careful analysis of flood identification method. The flood’s parameters are used for hydrologic analyses, for defense against flooding, for water management and for prognostication activity
