The statistical analysis of extreme data is important for various disciplines, including hydrology, insurance, finance, engineering and environmental sciences. This book provides a self-contained introduction to the parametric modeling, exploratory analysis and statistical interference for extreme values. The entire text of this third edition has been thoroughly updated and rearranged to meet the new requirements. Additional sections and chapters, elaborated on more than 100 pages, are particularly concerned with topics like dependencies, the conditional analysis and the multivariate modeling of extreme data. Parts IβIII about the basic extreme value methodology remain unchanged to some larger extent, yet notable are, e.g., the new sections about "An Overview of Reduced-Bias Estimation" (co-authored by M.I. Gomes), "The Spectral Decomposition Methodology", and "About Tail Independence" (co-authored by M. Frick), and the new chapter about "Extreme Value Statistics of Dependent Random Variables" (co-authored by H. Drees). Other new topics, e.g., a chapter about "Environmental Sciences", (co--authored by R.W. Katz), are collected within Parts IVβVI.

Neural Networks for Hydrological Modeling
Author:ROBERT J.ABRAHART, PAULINE E.KNEALE & LINDA M.SEE
A.A.BALKEMA PUBLISHERS | 2004 | ISBN: 905809619X | 316 pages | PDF | 3,2 MB
Neural network hydrological modeling has reached the end of the beginning: strong technological barriers and steep learning curves have both been defeated - such that harder scientific questions can henceforth be tackled from an informed position of accumulated skills and reported facts. The revised challenge is thus twofold: to establish significant questions that will help push back the boundaries of science; and to exploit, or delimit, the various benefits and drawbacks that are on offer. This book is intended to ease the transition into a data-driven paradigm and to provide a stimulus for further research on neural network hydrological modeling. Each chapter is the work of one or more independent experts in a different field of hydrological modeling - which demonstrates the wide potential of such tools, for solving real world problems throughout all areas of hydrological interest, and at all levels of methodological investigation. The initial material provides a basic introduction to the concepts and technologies involved; subsequent chapters use hydrological examples and case studies to illustrate the practical application of different mechanisms and approaches. The final chapter suggests some useful research directions, based on lateral thinking and alternative strategies or mindsets.

Guide for Park-and-Ride Facilities
Information presented in this guide is intended to provide a general knowledge of the park-and-ride planning and design process. Applicable local ordinances, design requirements, and building codes must be consulted for their affect on the planning and design process. Local data resources, development patterns, and transit networks may present unique opportunities for park-and-ride implementation, and should be explored. Chapter content includes: Defining the Park-and-Ride System, Park-and-Ride Planning Process, Operations and Maintenance of Park-and-Ride Facilities, Design Considerations for Park-and-Ride Facilities, and Architecture, Landscape, and Art: Integral Parts of the Park-and-Ride Facility.
AASHTO Guide for the Planning, Design, and Operation of Pedestrian Facilities, 1st Edition
The purpose of this guide is to provide guidance on the planning, design, and operation of pedestrian facilities along streets and highways. Specifically, the guide focuses on identifying effective measures for accommodating pedestrians on public rights-of-way. Appropriate methods for accommodating pedestrians, which vary among roadway and facility types, are described in this guide. The primary audiences for this manual are planners, roadway designers, and transportation engineers, whether at the state or local level, the majority of whom make decisions on a daily basis that affect pedestrians. This guide also recognizes the profound effect that land use planning and site design have on pedestrian mobility and addresses these topics as well.
