A flexible Bayesian hierarchical modeling framework for spatially dependent peaks-over-threshold data

By late February 2010, flooding had forced the evacuation of more than 1,000 people in southern Spain, according to the Dartmouth Flood Observatory. Heavy rains affected the provinces of Cordoba, Jaen, and Seville, blocking roads as well as flooding homes. Captured image of southern Spain on March 9, 2010.
