Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Extreme value theory finds wide applications in areas such as environmental science, financial strategy of risk management and biomedical data processing. In this thesis, we present two spatial extreme value studies related to weather and climate events observed in space and in time, one of which motivates a novel methodology in constructing continuous spatial process for extreme values. Motivated by finding multiscale spatial dependence in extreme climate studies, we offer a new Bayesian analysis tool for learning about both large scale spatial dependence and microscale dependence. The last chapter presents a novel application of space-time models to synoptic climatology.
