Abstract:In traditional extreme value analysis, the bulk of the data is ignored, and only the tails of the distribution are used for inference. Extreme observations are specified as values that exceed a threshold or as maximum values over distinct blocks of time, and subsequent estimation procedures are motivated by asymptotic theory for extremes of random processes. For environmental data, nonstationary behavior in the bulk of the distribution, such as seasonality or climate change, will also be observed in the tails.… Show more
