Modelling Seasonality and Trends in Daily Rainfall Data

نویسنده

چکیده

This paper presents a new approach to the problem of modelling daily rainfall using neural networks. We first model the conditional distributions of rainfall amounts, in such a way that the model itself determines the order of the process, and the time-dependent shape and scale of the conditional distributions. After integrating over particular weather patterns, we are able to extract seasonal variations and long-term trends.

Recent Trends in Precipitation and Streamflow in the Rio Puerco Basin

River systems in semiarid regions are susceptible to rapid and dramatic channel erosion and arroyo formation. Climate plays an important role in arroyo development through changes in precipitation intensity, seasonality, and variability. Here, trends in precipitation and streamflow at the annual, monthly, and daily timescales for the last 50 yr are analyzed for the Rio Puerco Basin in northwest...

Markov Chain Analogue Year Daily Rainfall Model and Pricing of Rainfall Derivatives

In this study we model the daily rainfall occurrence using Markov Chain Analogue Yearmodel (MCAYM) and the intensity or amount of daily rainfall using three different probability distributions; gamma, exponential and mixed exponential distributions. Combining the occurrence and intensity model we obtain Markov Chain Analogue Year gamma model (MCAYGM), Markov Chain Analogue Year exponentia...

تأثیر نوسانات زمانی فرسایندگی باران بر تغییرات فصلی رسوب دهی معلق (مطالعه ی موردی: حوزه کسیلیان)

Erosion rate has temporal variability and shows a cyclic fluctuation in each year as well as the factors influence it due to the seasonality of climate. This study was done to determine the seasonal variability of rainfall erosivity and suspended sediment and also to found out critical times in term of erosion risk in Kasiliyan watershed. The appropriate indices of monthly rainfall erosivity we...

The Effect of Multi-Model Averaging of Climate Model Outputs on the Seasonality of Rainfall Over the Columbia River Basin

The rainfall seasonality index is the measure of precipitation distribution throughout the seasonal cycle. The aim of this study is to compare the effect of different multi-model averaging methods on the rainfall seasonality index at each 1/16 latitude-longitude cells covering the Columbia River Basin. In accordance with the same, ten different climate model outputs are selected from 45 availab...

Regional Observed Trends in Daily Rainfall Indices of Extremes over the Indochina Peninsula from 1960 to 2007

This study analyzed the trends of extreme daily rainfall indices over the Indochina Peninsula from 1960 to 2007. The trends were obtained from high-resolution gridded daily rainfall data compiled by APHRODITE with coordinates of 4°N–25°N and 90E°–112°E. The indices were selected from the list of climate change indices recommended by ETCCDI, which is a joint group of WMO CCl, CLIVAR and JCOMM. T...
