Influence of Major Hurricanes “Helene” and “Milton” in 2024 on EVA of the Long Ocean Water Level Record at Key West, USA

open access: yesCoasts
This paper investigates the influence of back-to-back major hurricanes “Helene” and “Milton” which devastated south-eastern regions of the USA in 2024, and the extent to which associated storm surges influenced Extreme Value Analysis (EVA) of the long ...

Filtered Extreme Value Theory for Value-At-Risk Estimation [PDF]

open access: yes
Extreme returns in stock returns need to be captured for a successful risk management function to estimate unexpected loss in portfolio. Traditional value-at-risk models based on parametric models are not able to capture the extremes in emerging markets ...

Bridging the gap: a genetically validated avian chorioallantoic membrane platform for investigation of spontaneous circulating tumor cells

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We established the avian chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) assay as a scalable in vivo model for studying circulating tumor cells (CTCs). Human gastrointestinal tumors spontaneously released genetically validated CTCs that were detected across multiple platforms, demonstrating that the CAM model provides an accessible tool for investigating early cancer ...

Wave Energy Conversion to Decarbonize Offshore Aquaculture: Multi-Level Techno-Economic Analysis for a Case Study in Peniche, Portugal

open access: yesEnergies
By 2050, global population growth will lead to a significant increase in demand for animal-based products, including seafood. Aquaculture is a key solution to meet these needs while reducing pressure on wild aquatic stocks.

Extreme Value Theory for Tail-Related Risk Measures [PDF]

open access: yes
Many fields of modern science and engineering have to deal with events which are rare but have significant consequences. Extreme value theory is considered to provide the basis for the statistical modeling of such extremes. The potential of extreme value

Analysing the significance of small conformational changes and low occupancy states in serial crystallographic data

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
This protocol paper outlines methods to establish the success of a time‐resolved serial crystallographic experiment, by means of statistical analysis of timepoint data in reciprocal space and models in real space. We show how to amplify the signal from excited states to visualise structural changes in successful experiments.

A Diagnostic for Selecting the Threshold in Extreme Value Analysis

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Statistical Society Series B: Statistical Methodology, 2001
Summary A new approach is suggested for choosing the threshold when fitting the Hill estimator of a tail exponent to extreme value data. Our method is based on an easily computed diagnostic, which in turn is founded directly on the Hill estimator itself, ‘symmetrized’ to remove the effect of the tail exponent but designed to emphasize ...

Non-Parametric Inference for Bivariate Extreme-Value Copulas [PDF]

open access: yes
Extreme-value copulas arise as the possible limits of copulas of componentwise maxima of independent, identically distributed samples.The use of bivariate extreme-value copulas is greatly facilitated by their representation in terms of Pickands ...

Hyperactive ice‐binding proteins stabilize cell membranes and improve resistance to dehydration stress in Caenorhabditis elegans

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
TisIBP8, a fungal‐derived hyperactive ice‐binding protein, helps Caenorhabditis elegans survive dehydration. It localizes near cell membranes, reduces cell damage, and helps maintain membrane structure during drying. These results suggest that ice‐binding proteins can protect cells from dehydration stress as well as freezing stress.

Bayesian Extreme Value Mixture Modelling for Estimating VaR [PDF]

open access: yes
A new extreme value mixture modelling approach for estimating Value-at-Risk (VaR) is proposed, overcoming the key issues of determining the threshold which defines the distribution tail and accounts for uncertainty due to threshold choice.
