The Global Wind Resource Observed by Scatterometer
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 ...

Long-term satellite observations have the ability to provide early warnings of harmful algal blooms (HABs). However, detecting HABs in optically complex coastal waters is somewhat challenging. In this article, we propose a two-step scheme, combining long

Operating at the extreme: estimating the upper yield boundary of winter wheat production in commercial practice [PDF]
Wheat farming provides 28.5% of global cereal production. After steady growth in average crop yield from 1950 to 1990, wheat yields have generally stagnated, which prompts the question of whether further improvements are possible.

The value does not exist! A motivation for extremal analysis
<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 ...

Applying Quantum Mechanics for Extreme Value Prediction of VaR and ES in the ASEAN Stock Exchange
The advantage of quantum mechanics to shift up the ability to econometrically understand extreme tail losses in financial data has become more desirable, especially in cases of Value at Risk (VaR) and Expected Shortfall (ES) predictions.
