This article suggests the contributions with two highlights. One is to propose a novel model
of sea level fluctuations (sea level for short), which is called the generalized Cauchy (GC) …

An α-slash distribution built upon a random variable X is a heavy tailed distribution
corresponding to Y= X/U 1/α, where U is standard uniform random variable, independent of …

Based on the superstatistical formalism, we propose a new probability distribution. By
means of a transformation of the q-exponential, we construct the q-Pareto distribution by …

Heat-induced physical changes of rocks, as would happen in fire accidents, have crucial
importance in the long-term stability of underground openings such as tunnels or radioactive …

We model the process of exceedences of the ebullition of methane from wetlands in the
sedge–grass marsh, South Bohemia, Czech Republic by a Mixed Poisson process with …

Mathai's pathway model is playing an increasingly prominent role in statistical distributions.
As a generalization of a great variety of distributions, the pathway model allows the studying …

This paper proposes a simple, fast and direct nonparametric test to verify if a sample is
drawn from a distribution with a finite first moment. The method can also be applied to test for …

The occurrence of earthquakes is an issue with an extreme importance for the society due to
the effects that they can cause. There are specific areas in the world with great seismic …

In this paper we explore Pareto based distributions to deal with the energy released by the
major seisms. This is a relevant problem because great earthquakes can cause heavy …

In this paper the existence of the corner frequency value for the seismic moment distribution
is investigated, analysing worldwide data. Pareto based distributions, usually considered as …
