====== Weibull Plotting Position ====== The Weibull Plotting Position is defined as $$P(x>X)= \frac{m}{N+1}$$ where: $m$ : rank of the statistical variate $N$ : total number of observations $P$ : probability that the variate x exceeds the value X or $P(x>X)$ Background and theory are discussed in depth by {{ :en:hydro:l3-jam2349.1.pdf |Makkonen (2005)}}.
