5 Nonstationary Extreme Value Analysis (NEVA) Software Package: User Guide Linyin Cheng, and Amir AghaKouchak University of California, Irvine Abstract The Nonstationary Extreme Value Analysis (NEVA) software package has been developed to facilitate extreme value analysis under both stationary and nonstationary assumptions. In a Bayesian approach, NEVA estimates the extreme value parameters with a Differential Evolution Markov Chain (DE MC) approach for global optimization over the parameter space. NEVA includes posterior probability intervals (uncertainty bounds) of estimated return levels through Bayesian inference, with its inherent advantages in uncertainty quantification. The software presents the results of non stationary extreme value analysis using various exceedance probability methods. We evaluate both stationary and nonstationary components of the package for a case study consisting of annual temperature maxima for a gridded global temperature dataset. The results show that NEVA can reliably describe extremes and their return levels. The source code can be downloaded from here: Main reference publication: Cheng L., AghaKouchak A., Gilleland E., Katz R.W., 2014, Non stationary Extreme Value Analysis in a Changing Climate, Climatic Change, doi: /s

7 Page 1 1 Overview of NEVA Components NEVA includes two components: (1) The Generalized Extreme Value (GEV) distribution for analysis of annual maxima (block maxima). (2) The Generalized Pareto Distribution (GPD) for analysis of extremes above a certain threshold (i.e., peak over threshold (POT) approach). Both NEVA GEV and NEVA GPD can be used for stationary (time independent) and nonstationary (transient) extreme value analysis.
8 Page 2 The package includes the following files and folders: 1 Folder NEVA_GEV: Includes source codes for stationary and nonstationary Generalized Extreme Value (GEV) distribution for analysis of annual maxima (block maxima). 2 Folder NEVA_GPD: Includes source codes for stationary and nonstationary Generalized Pareto Distribution (GPD) for analysis of extremes above a certain threshold (i.e., peakover threshold (POT) approach). 3 File Disclaimer.txt: By using NEVA users agree with this disclaimer.
