Earth and Space Science, 2019 Incorrect estimation of extreme values of daily precipitation can have severe consequences in hydrological and engineering applications. Recent advances in the study of extreme precipitation have shown that the Metastatistical Extreme Value Distribution (

Improving Probability-Weighted Moment Methods for the Generalized Extreme Value Distribution
Revstat Statistical Journal, 2008 In 1985 Hosking et al. estimated with the so-called Probability-Weighted Moments (PWM) method the parameters of the Generalized Extreme Value (GEV) distribution, the latter being classically fitted to maxima of sequences of independent and identically ...

Minimum Sample Size Determination for Generalized Extreme Value Distribution
Communications in Statistics - Simulation and Computation, 2010 Sample size determination is an important issue in statistical analysis. Obviously, the larger the sample size is, the better the statistical results we have. However, in many areas such as coastal engineering and environmental sciences, it can be very expensive or even impossible to collect large samples. In this paper, we propose a general method for

Statistical modeling of maximum temperature in Guinea [PDF]
Anais da Academia Brasileira de CiênciasA statistical analysis of maximum temperature from twelve weather stations in parts of Guinea is provided. Using maximum likelihood estimation, maximum temperature data was fitted by the Generalized Extreme Value distribution. Data from all of the twelve

Spatial Patterns in the Extreme Dependence of Ozone Pollution between Cities in China’s BTH Region
Atmosphere, 2023 Ozone pollution in China has become increasingly severe in recent years. Considering the damage that extreme ozone pollution may cause and the fact that the occurrence of extreme ozone pollution among different locations may be related, this paper uses ...

Posterior propriety in Bayesian extreme value analyses using reference priors [PDF]
, 2015 The Generalized Pareto (GP) and Generalized extreme value (GEV) distributions play an important role in extreme value analyses, as models for threshold excesses and block maxima respectively. For each of these distributions we consider Bayesian inference

On the maximum likelihood estimator for the Generalized Extreme-Value distribution [PDF]
Extremes, 2017 The vanilla method in univariate extreme-value theory consists of fitting the three-parameter Generalized Extreme-Value (GEV) distribution to a sample of block maxima. Despite claims to the contrary, the asymptotic normality of the maximum likelihood estimator has never been established.

Evaluation of the best fit distribution for partial duration series of daily rainfall in Madinah, western Saudi Arabia [PDF]
Proceedings of the International Association of Hydrological Sciences, 2014 Rainfall frequency analysis is an essential tool for the design of water related infrastructure. It can be used to predict future flood magnitudes for a given magnitude and frequency of extreme rainfall events.
