Short summary
The use of historical data in a regional analysis can reduce the uncertainties in extreme quantile's estimation. Historical data are significant extreme events that are not recorded by tide gauge. They usually look like isolated data and they are different from continuous data from systematic measurements of tide gauges. Thanks to the use of the credible duration concept, the proposed FAB method allows the use of historical data together with systematic data in a regional framework.
