Mapping the Hazard of Extreme Rainfall by Peaks over Threshold Extreme Value Analysis and Spatial Regression Techniques

Combination of The Peaks - Over - Threshold andBootstrapping Methods for Extreme Value Predi

Nonparametric regression and extreme-value analysis

This note summarizes my contributions to the estimation of extreme level curves. This problem is equivalent to estimating quantiles when covariate information is available and when their order converges to one as the sample size increases. Several estimators of these socalled ”extreme conditional quantiles” are developped and the links with boundary or frontier estimation are emphasized. 1 Extr...

Investigation of the atmospheric circulation anomalies associated with extreme rainfall events over the Coastal West Africa

This study investigates the atmospheric circulation associated with extreme rainfall events over the coastal West Africa. The rainfall data of this study were obtained from the Global Precipitation Climatology Centre (GPCC), spanning from 1981 to 2010. The atmospheric datasets were also obtained from the ERA-Interim reanalysis. The study employed the Z-Index to categorize dry and wet years into...

Temporal and spatial distribution of extreme precipitation indices over the lake Urmia Basin, Iran

Analysis of spatial and temporal extreme monsoonal rainfall over South Asia using complex networks

We present a detailed analysis of summer monsoon rainfall over the Indian peninsular using nonlinear spatial correlations. This analysis is carried out employing the tools of complex networks and a measure of nonlinear correlation for point processes such as rainfall, called event synchronization. This study provides valuable insights into the spatial organization, scales, and structure of the ...
