The theory of bivariate extremes is concerned with the joint distribution of maxima at two different sites. In hydrology, this theory is important when one wishes to apply the station-year method to rainfall or flood maxima.A dependence function is introduced which is directly related to the distribution of the largest value in a sequence of paired observations. The value of this function is found to be dependent on the event magnitude and the distance between stations.For 1-day rainfall amounts in The Netherlands the shape of the dependence function of the annual maxima is quite different from that of the maxima for the winter season (October 1–March 31). The dependence function for the annual maxima is such that the station-year method can be applied after a slight modification. On the other hand, the winter maxima have a complicated correlation structure from which it is not clear how the station-year method is affected.
