En tal sentido, el objetivo de este artículo es evaluar el peligro producido por vientos máximos en Cuba utilizando valores máximos del viento diarios de los registros de estaciones, el cual es cuantificado usando el periodo de retorno, empleando la técnica de &#8220;Picos sobre la referencia&#8221; para fijar la curva de valores extremos a través de la Distribución Generalizada de Pareto. En el artículo también se presenta una técnica computacional eficiente para la separación de los tipos de viento y el correspondiente cálculo de la curva de PR para los sinópticos y de tormenta con el Intervalo de Confiabilidad para una probabilidad del 95%. Esto es de suma importancia para las autoridades que deben elaborar planes de gestión de riesgos y la incorporación de las medidas requeridas, así como ayuda a la planeación urbana, tratando de evitar el desarrollo de centros urbanos en regiones de alto peligro. En general se encontró que el peligro producido por vientos no huracanados en Cuba es relativamente bajo. También se comprobó que los registros de las estaciones son adecuados para calcular el peligro producido por viento, aunque en algunas estaciones se encontraron errores en la caracterización de las condiciones de tiempo presente, por lo que como parte de este trabajo se implementó una técnica sencilla que permite corregir estos errores.]]></p></abstract>
<abstract abstract-type="short" xml:lang="en"><p><![CDATA[ABSTRACT The researches related to the return period of extreme winds in Cuba contain a limited number of meteorological stations and consider the annual maximum gusts of wind. In this sense, evaluate the danger caused by maximum winds in Cuba is the goal of this article. For that, maximum daily wind values &#8203;&#8203;of the station records were use, which is quantified using the return period, using the technique of "Peaks on the Reference" to set the curve of extreme values &#8203;&#8203;through the Generalized Pareto Distribution. The article also presents an efficient computational technique for the separation of wind types and the corresponding calculation of the PR curve for the synoptics and storm with the Reliability Interval for a 95% probability. This is important for the authorities that must prepare risk management plans and the incorporation of the required measures, as well as aid for urban planning, trying to avoid the development of urban centers in high risk regions. In general, it was found that the danger caused by non-hurricane winds in Cuba is relatively low. It was also found that the station records are adequate to calculate the danger caused by wind, although in some station&#8217;s errors were found in the characterization of the present weather conditions, so as part of this work a simple technique was implemented to correct these errors.]]></p></abstract>
