Abstract

The joint limiting distribution of suitably normalized partial sums and maxima in a stationary strong mixing sequence with finite variance is derived. It is found that in the limit the two components are independent. This generalizes Chow and Teugels' result for independent sequences. Motivation for the present study comes from a statistical problem in the analysis of extreme winds.
