description | An application of stochastic process for describing and analysing daily the rainfall pattern at Universiti
Pertanian Malaysia (V.P.M.), Serdang, is presented. A model based on the first-order Markov chain was
developed. The model uses historical rainfall data to estimate the markov transition probabilities. The
year is divided into four seasons, each is represented by a separate transition probability matrix. The range
of rainfall values is divided into eleven states, thus resulting in a 11 X 11 transition probability matrix for
each season. The model is capable of simulating a daily rainfall record of any length for the area. It is evaluated
by comparing the simulation result with observed data for a one-year period. |
