Journal ArticleDOI
A multivariate model of sea storms using copulas
TL;DR: In this article, the authors focus on the multidimensional frequency analysis of sea storm significant wave height (H), storm duration (D), storm direction (A), and storm interarrival time (I) (i.e., the calm period separating two successive storms).
Journal ArticleDOI
Multivariate assessment of droughts: Frequency analysis and dynamic return period
TL;DR: In this paper, a new concept of Dynamic Return Period, formulated using the theory of Copulas, and calculated via a Survival Kendall's approach, is introduced, which can be used to monitor the temporal evolution of a drought event, and to perform real time assessment.
Tree-grass co-existence in savanna: Interactions of rain and fire
TL;DR: It is shown how the co-existence of trees and grasses insavannas can be simultaneously controlled by rainfall and fire, and how the relative importance of the two factors distinguishes between dry and moist savannas.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tree-grass co-existence in savanna: Interactions of rain and fire.
TL;DR: In this paper, a simple eco-hydrologic model of savanna vegetation involving both competition for water, and differential sensitivity of trees and grasses to fire disturbances is introduced, and the relative importance of the two factors distinguishes between dry and moist savannas.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison between Parametric and Nonparametric Approaches for the Calculation of Two Drought Indices: SPI and SSI
TL;DR: In this paper, a comparison between parametric and nonparametric approaches for the calculation of two drought indices: the standardized precipitation index (SPI) and the standardized streamflow index (SSI) is provided.
