Multivariate Frequency Analysis of Hydro-Meteorological Variables

Fateh Chebana’s background is in statistics and since 2005 his interests have been focused on application, adaptation and development of statistical approaches for hydro-meteorological phenomena. Having experience and background in both areas (hydro-meteorological and statistics) allows Chebana to present solid material well theoretically justified, and with applied orientations in terms of problematic, understanding of data, and interpretation of the results as well as indicating their usefulness. Several of his papers and professional activities are closely connected to the topic of the proposed book, in particular two chapters, as a lead author of a community paper about the Legacy of STAHY (international statistical hydrology commission), organised sessions in international conferences, Chair of the STAHY2016 workshop, co-chair of the international CRM–CANSSI 2014 Workshop on New Horizons in Copula Modeling, Invited National Webinar by Canadian Water Resources Association.
