description | Many hydrological studies are devoted to the identification of events that
are expected to occur on average within a certain time span. While this topic
is well established in the univariate case, recent advances focus on a
multivariate characterization of events based on copulas. Following a
previous study, we show how the definition of the survival Kendall return
period fits into the set of multivariate return periods.<br><br>Moreover, we preliminary investigate the ability of the multivariate return
period definitions to select maximal events from a time series. Starting from
a rich simulated data set, we show how similar the selection of events from a
data set is. It can be deduced from the study and theoretically underpinned
that the strength of correlation in the sample influences the differences
between the selection of maximal events. |
