A Review of Extreme Air Temperature Analysis in Croatia
A historical review of extreme air temperature analysis in Croatia is presented. Two capital works on the subject were published in the 1970s by the Croatian Meteorological and Hydrological Service (DHMZ) and Faculty of Science University of Zagreb (PMF ...

Extreme Value Analysis of Statistically Independent Stochastic Variables [PDF]
An extreme value analysis (EVA) is essential to obtain a design value for highly nonlinear variables such as long-term environmental data for wind and waves, and slamming or sloshing impact pressures.

Extreme Value Analysis of Tide Gauge Record at the Port of Busan, South Korea
This article conducts an extreme value analysis (EVA) of hourly tide gauge measurements at Busan, South Korea, from 1960 onwards to understand the influence of typhoon-driven surges and predicted tides that super-elevate ocean still water levels (SWLs ...

Statistical Modeling on the Severity of Unhealthy Air Pollution Events in Malaysia
This study proposes the concept of severity as an alternative measure of extreme air pollution events. Information about severity can be derived from the cumulative effect of air pollution events, which can be determined from unhealthy Air Pollution ...

extRemes 2.0: An Extreme Value Analysis Package in R
This article describes the extreme value analysis (EVA) R package extRemes version 2.0, which is completely redesigned from previous versions. The functions primarily provide utilities for implementing univariate EVA, with a focus on weather and climate ...

Regression-type analysis for multivariate extreme values [PDF]
AbstractThis paper devises a regression-type model for the situation where both the response and covariates are extreme. The proposed approach is designed for the setting where the response and covariates are modeled as multivariate extreme values, and thus contrarily to standard regression methods it takes into account the key fact that the limiting ...

Extreme Value Analysis for Mixture Models with Heavy-Tailed Impurity
This paper deals with the extreme value analysis for the triangular arrays which appear when some parameters of the mixture model vary as the number of observations grows.

Extreme-value analysis of wave heights
This paper discusses the most common problems associated with the determination of design wave heights. It analyzes two common methods used in fitting wave data and shows some of the stability or inconsistency problems associated with commonly used distributions.

Threshold selection in univariate extreme value analysis [PDF]
AbstractThreshold selection plays a key role in various aspects of statistical inference of rare events. In this work, two new threshold selection methods are introduced. The first approach measures the fit of the exponential approximation above a threshold and achieves good performance in small samples.

The probability of unprecedented high rainfall in wine regions of northern Portugal
Climate is arguably one of the most important factors determining the quality of wine from any given grapevine variety. This study focuses on three wine-growing regions in northern Portugal: Vinho Verde, Trás-os-Montes and Douro, the latter coinciding ...
