Generalised Additive Extreme Value Models

Methods for fitting various extreme value distributions with parameters of generalised additive model (GAM) form are provided. For details of distributions see Coles, S.G. (2001) , GAMs see Wood, S.N. (2017) , and the fitting approach see Wood, S.N., Pya, N. & Safken, B. (2016) . Details of how evgam works and various examples are given in Youngman, B.D. (2022) .
