Outliers, Extreme Events and Multiscaling [PDF]
Physical Review E, 2000 Extreme events have an important role which is sometime catastrophic in a variety of natural phenomena including climate, earthquakes and turbulence, as well as in man-made environments like financial markets. Statistical analysis and predictions in such

Modeling Extreme Events: Time-Varying Extreme Tail Shape [PDF]
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2020 A dynamic semi-parametric framework is proposed to study time variation in tail fatness of sovereign bond yield changes during the 2010--2012 euro area sovereign debt crisis measured at a high (15-minute) frequency. The framework builds on the Generalized Pareto Distribution (GPD) for modeling peaks over thresholds as in Extreme Value Theory, but casts

Living Reviews in Solar Physics, 2022 AbstractWe trace the evolution of research on extreme solar and solar-terrestrial events from the 1859 Carrington event to the rapid development of the last twenty years. Our focus is on the largest observed/inferred/theoretical cases of sunspot groups, flares on the Sun and Sun-like stars, coronal mass ejections, solar proton events, and geomagnetic ...

Modeling Extreme Events: Time-Varying Extreme Tail Shape
Journal of Business & Economic Statistics, 2023 We propose a dynamic semiparametric framework to study time variation in tail parameters. The framework builds on the Generalized Pareto Distribution (GPD) for modeling peaks over thresholds as in Extreme Value Theory, but casts the model in a conditional framework to allow for time-variation in the tail parameters.

Aerodynamic Mitigation of Wind Uplift on Low-Rise Building Roof Using Large-Scale Testing
Frontiers in Built Environment, 2020 During strong wind events such as hurricanes and thunderstorms, building roofs are subjected to high wind uplift forces (suctions), which often lead to severe roofing component damage and possibly, water intrusion.

The 4.2 ka Event and the End of the Maltese “Temple Period”
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2022 The small size and relatively challenging environmental conditions of the semi-isolated Maltese archipelago mean that the area offers an important case study of societal change and human-environment interactions.

Risk Communication in Latin America: an Evaluation of Its Impact While Facing the Covid-19 Pandemic
Revista de Estudios Latinoamericanos sobre Reducción del Riesgo de Desastres, 2022 The systemic risk scenario generated by the COVID-19 pandemic implies reviewing how risk communication mechanisms are capable of influencing people's behavior and, with this, promote adherence to self-care and prevention measures.
