With this release, a better way of computing confidence intervals of a fitted GEV model is introduced. Since this change removes a function and a file that became obsolete, it marks the beginning of the new subversion 1.2. Confidence intervals computed with the new method should generally turn out to be smaller than confidence intervals that were estimated with code of v1.1 and earlier. The new method is demonstrated in two files for time-independent GEV models, one for monthly maxima (modified) and one for annual maxima (new).
This modification has no impact on time-dependent GEV models, like those discussed by Reinert et al. (2021).
