Spatial dependence and space-time trend in extreme events distributions. Instead, the many facets of multivariate extremes are mirrored in the inherent dependence structure of component-wise maxima which by principle must be dissociated from their marginal distributions. Statistical procedures for eliciting extremal dependence typically rely on standardisation of the unknown marginal distributions. This talk focuses primarily on the case of an evolving frequency of the marginal extremes over time and across space with unchanged temporal dependence. Time permitting, I will address the semi-parametric statistical framework for non-stationary extremes that allows a varying extreme value index with time. |
