I will be in Lyon next Monday to give a talk on "Modeling heat-waves: return period for non-stationary extremes" in a workshop entitled "Changement climatique et gestion des risques". An interesting reference might be some pages from Le Monde (201...
I few years ago, while I was working on kernel based density estimation on compact support distribution (like copulas) I went through a series of papers on circular distributions. By that time, I thought it was something for mathematicians working ...
In the paper on the heat wave in Paris (mentioned here) I discussed changes in the distribution of temperature (and autocorrelation of the time series). During the workshop on Statistical Methods for Meteorology and Climate Change today (here) I o...
IowaHawk has a excellent article attempting to reproduce the infamous CRU climate graph using OpenOffice: Fables of the Reconstruction. We thought we would show how to produced similarly bad results using R. If the re-constructed technique is close to what was originally done then so many bad moves were taken that you can’t learn much Related posts:
Zero Inflated Models and Generalized Linear Mixed Models with R.
