Conclusions and Challenges<br />

Conclusions<br />

◮ Weather forcasts provide information that conditions occurence <strong>of</strong><br />

extremes<br />

◮ Linear (non-linear) statistical modeling extracts information<br />

◮ Extreme value theory provides distributions tailored for extremes<br />

◮ Parametric method less uncertain than non-parametric method and<br />

non-linear dependecy (shape parameter) is not parsimony<br />

◮ High-impact weather: insufficient data available for training and for<br />

validation<br />
