A class of newly developed procedures is described for drawing inferences concerning the tail behaviour of a probability distribution. These procedures form a powerful and flexible class of alternatives to the traditional methods based on extreme value distributions and seem more appropriate for data with no natural seasonality. For the parametric family involved, the available estimating methods are described and an illustrative example is presented using a set of earthquake data. The general advantages of the procedures over the subsample method developed by Gumbel are pointed out.
