Para lo cual, se utilizaron datos de oleaje y viento del Centro Europeo de Predicción del Tiempo a Mediano Plazo (ECMWF). Primero, se realizó una caracterización del espectro de oleaje, luego se utilizó el Análisis de Valor Extremo EVA, con el método de pico sobre umbral (POT). Para encontrar los eventos extremos y sus periodos de retorno a 100 años. Finalmente, se realizó el análisis físico de las tres mayores tormentas registradas en el periodo de 1979 a 2015. En las cuales se determinó que sus trayectorias ascendentes (de sur a norte) y su gran intensidad, generan el oleaje de fondo (swell) que contribuye con la producción de valores extremos en las Islas Galápagos. Además, la máxima altura significativa de ola es de 3,8 m para un periodo de retorno de 100 años.]]></p></abstract>

For which, Wave and wind data from the European Center for Medium-Range Weather Prediction (ECMWF) were used. First, we do a characterization of the wave spectrum, then we use the Extreme Value Analysis (EVA), with the peak over threshold method (POT). After that, we found the extreme events and their return periods to 100 years. Finally, the physical analysis of the three largest storms recorded in the period from 1979 to 2015 was carried out. In which we determined that their upward trajectories (from south to north) and their great intensity generate the bottom swell, that contributes to the production of extreme values in the Galapagos Islands. Furthermore, the maximum significant wave height is 3.8 m for a return period of 100 years.]]></p></abstract>
