	Fifty-Year Flood-Inundation Maps for Comayagua, Honduras
		The 50-year-flood discharge for Río Humuya at Comayagua, 1,400 cubic meters per second, was estimated using a regression equation that relates the 50-year-flood discharge to drainage area and mean annual precipitation.
		Because the regression equation discharge agrees closely with the high end of the range of discharges estimated from the gaging-station records, it was used for the hydraulic modeling to ensure that the resulting 50-year-flood water-surface elevations would not be underestimated.
		The 50-year-flood discharge for Río Majada at Comayagua (230 cubic meters per second) was estimated using the regression equation because there are no long-term gaging-stations on this river from which to estimate the discharge.

		The regional trend was estimated (using gravity stations outside the valley) and removed, revealing a residual gravity anomaly exceeding —30 milligals.
		Sedimentary fill in the northeast and southwest corners of the Comayagua Valley is relatively thin, suggesting that post-tectonic mass wasting has significantly modified the visible expression of basin-forming tectonics.

		Al-Zadjali, Ibrahim and D.J. Stierman, Interpretation of Gravity from the Comayagua Graben, Honduras; Abstracts with Programs, North-Central Section of the Geological Society of America, Ames, IA, 1996, p.

Mountains east and west of this graben are capped by Tertiary volcanic rocks of Miocene age or younger.
