Short summary
Various estimators of the Hurst exponent characterizing long-term persistence exist, while the values estimated by them may differ. The contribution reviews the possible reasons causing the presence of long-term persistence in time series. Based on the six, relatively long discharge time series from mountainous catchments located in the Elbe River basin close to the borders between Czechia and Germany and two selected estimators, it is shown that the length of time series plays a crucial role.
