DESCRIPTION:Extreme Value Analysis (EVA) is a statistical methodology for m
 aking inferences about rare events\, typically ones that can result in sev
 ere consequences\, such as extreme weather\, financial risks\, material/eq
 uipment failures\, epidemics\, solar cycles\, insurance losses\, and much 
 more. This talk will provide an introduction to EVA\, including the theore
 tical basis for it\, a demonstration of EVA computations using Python and 
 R\, and specific examples of its use in practice.\n\nSpeaker(s): Al Reich\
