A Statistical Rainfall-Runoff Mixture Model with Heavy-Tailed Components

1 We present a conditional density model of river runoff given covariate information 2 which includes precipation at four surrounding stations. The proposed model is non3 parametric in the central part of the distribution and relies on Extreme-Value Theory 4 parametric assumptions for the upper tail of the distribution. From the trained con5 ditional density model, we can compute quantiles of v...

The Welfare State in Eastern and South- Eastern Europe – the Case of Romania

After the collapse of communism, Eastern and Southeastern European counties have experienced significant changes, especially in terms of transition to market economy was achieved through efforts of liberalization and elimination of all forms of national control. As a consequence, some of the social welfare states in the region, still anchored to the old forms of organization, faced serious diff...

3. Frequency Distributions of Heavy Rainfall Events

The data used in developing the frequency relations consisted of both daily and hourly precipitation records from Illinois and from nearby stations in surrounding states. The daily data, mostly from nonrecording raingages, spanned the 83-year period from 1901 through 1983. They included data from the 61 precipitation-reporting stations discussed previously (figure 71, whose records had been car...
