Extreme weather events can have severe consequences for the population and the environment. Therefore, in this study a temporal trend of annual temperatures was built with a time series from 1950 to 2010 for Mexicali, Mexico, and estimates of 5- to 100-y...

Monsoon-related extreme flood events are experienced regularly across India, bringing costly damage, disruption and death to local communities. This study provides a route towards estimating the likely magnitude of extreme floods (e.g., the 1-in-100-year...

The study of extreme waves is important for the protection of coastal and ocean structures. In this work, a 22-year (1990?2011) wave hindcast in the Yellow Sea is employed to perform the assessment of extreme significant wave heights in this area. To ext...

The frequency of occurrence of temperature extreme events has changed throughout the last century: significant positive trends in warm nights and negative trends in cold nights have been observed all over the world. In Argentina, the probability of occur...

Evaluating forecasts of risk measures, such as value?at?risk (VaR) and expected shortfall (ES), is an important process for financial institutions. Backtesting procedures were introduced to assess the efficiency of these forecasts. In this paper, we comp...

Some of the problems in drought assessments are that: analyses tend to focus on coarse temporal scales, many of the methods yield skewed indices, a few terminologies are ambiguously used, and analyses comprise an implicit assumption that the observations...

Electricity markets are considered to be the most volatile amongst commodity markets. The non-storability of electricity and the need for instantaneous balancing of demand and supply can often cause extreme short-lived fluctuations in electricity prices....
