Convert a Vector of Annual Nonexceedance Probabilities to Gumbel Reduced Variates
Description
This function converts a vector of annual nonexceedance probabilities F to Gumbel reduced variates (GRV, grv; Hosking and Wallis [1997, p. 92])
grv = -\log(-\log(F))\mbox{,}
where 0 \le F \le 1. The Gumbel distribution (quagum), which is a special case of the Generalized Extreme Value (quagev), will plot as a straightline when the horizontal axis is GRV transformed.
Usage
prob2grv(f)
Arguments
f
A vector of annual nonexceedance probabilities.
Value
A vector of Gumbel reduced variates.
