Abstract
We use in the following the theory developed in the preceding chapters to discuss a few nonstandard applications. Of interest are here the statistical estimation of the cluster distribution and of the extremal index in a stationary situation. In the last section we treat a frost data problem which is related to an extreme value problem of a nonstationary sequence.
