The Global Wind Resource Observed by Scatterometer

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2020
A 27-year-long calibrated multi-mission scatterometer data set is used to determine the global basin-scale and near-coastal wind resource. In addition to mean and percentile values, the analysis also determines the global values of both 50- and 100-year ...

Extreme Value Analysis of Ocean Still Water Levels along the USA East Coast—Case Study (Key West, Florida)

open access: yesCoasts, 2023
This paper provides an Extreme Value Analysis (EVA) of the hourly still water level (SWL) record at Key West, Florida dating back to 1913 to understand the statistical likelihood of the combination of high predicted tides and the more dynamic influences (

Bayesian Variable Selection in Generalized Extreme Value Regression: Modeling Annual Maximum Temperature

open access: yesMathematics, 2023
In many applications, interest focuses on assessing relationships between covariates and the extremes of the distribution of a continuous response. For example, in climate studies, a usual approach to assess climate change has been based on the analysis ...

Impact of ASOS Real-Time Quality Control on Convective Gust Extremes in the USA

open access: yesMeteorology, 2023
Most damage to buildings across the contiguous United States, in terms of number and total cost, is caused by gusts in convective events associated with thunderstorms. Their assessment relies on the integrity of meteorological observations.

The Topp-Leone generalized extreme value distribution: Extreme value analysis and return level estimation of the PM2.5 in Chiang Mai, Thailand [PDF]

open access: yesSongklanakarin Journal of Science and Technology (SJST), 2022
In this paper, an extension of the generalized extreme value (GEV) distribution called the Topp Leone-GEV (TL-GEV) distribution is applied. The TL-GEV distribution has four parameters (λ, μ, σ, ξ), and it has the three named sub-models TLGumbel (for ξ =

The value does not exist! A motivation for extremal analysis

open access: yesProbability, Uncertainty and Quantitative Risk, 2022
<p style='text-indent:20px;'>Standard mathematical economics studies the production, exchange, and consumption of goods “<i>provided with units of measurement</i>,” as in physics, in order to be enumerated, quantified, added, etc. Therefore, “baskets of goods,” which should describe subsets of goods, are mathematically represented as ...
