In extremis
In extremis : disruptive events and trends in climate and hydrology / Jürgen P. Kropp, Hans Joachim Schellnhuber, editors. -- Berlin ; Heidelberg : Springer, [2011]. -- ©2011. -- 1 online zdroj (xx, 320 stran) : ilustrace (některé barevně), mapy. -- Contents: pt. 1. Extremes, uncertainty, and reconstruction -- pt. 2. Extremes, trends, and changes -- pt. 3. Long-term phenomena and nonlinear properties. -- Summary: The book addresses a weakness of current methodologies used in extreme value assessment, i.e. the assumption of stationarity, which is not given in reality. With respect to this issue a lot of new developed technologies are presented, i.e. influence of trends vs. internal correlations, quantitative uncertainty assessments, etc. The book not only focuses on artificial time series data, but has a close link to empirical measurements, in order to make the suggested methodologies applicable for practitioners in water management and meteorology. -- ISBN : 9783642148637 (online ; pdf). -- 3642148638. -- 9783642148620. -- 364214862X.
