Abstract: Abstract Many problems requiring the application of methodology based on extreme value theory are inherently multivariate. Examples of the observational mechanisms which lead to such problems being multivariate include: a number of different physical processes being observed at one site, a number of summary features of the short term behaviour of a single process observed at one site, consecutive observations during extreme events of a single process observed at one site, and a spatial process observed at a finite number of sites.
