  • Heavy-Tailed Distributions in Disaster Analysis

    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    Mathematically, natural disasters of all types are characterized by heavy tailed distributions. The analysis of such distributions with common methods, such as averages and dispersions, can therefore lead to erroneous conclusions. The statistical methods described in this book avoid such pitfalls. Seismic disasters are studied, primarily thanks to the availability of an ample statistical database. ... Read more
