Starting with the Kansas River, expanded hydrologic services moved into Texas and then throughout the entire country within the next few years. empirical app roaches used for climate prediction are. The authors would also like to acknowledge the Thai Meteorological Department, NOAA, and Research Data Archive for providing the datasets used in the study. Runoff comes from two sources, rainfall and snowmelt. The precipitation forecast reports needs some intelligent computing which can read the nonlinear data and generate Now, consider what would happen if we want to forecast for 24 hours. Determining the coefficients for the linear combination is the main concept of the MCAM. Complexity of the nature of annual rainfall record has been studied using FST, ARIMA and Theil’s regression techniques. From Table 5, by using the two methods, the four predictors G850, MSLP, Q850, and T850 had a positive correlation overall. Correlation between the observed rainfall and the predictors using AM and CAM taking into account the atmospheric predictors over Thailand regions including mean sea level pressure (MSLP), temperature (T850), moisture (Q850), and geopotential height (G850) at 850 hPa. In 1940, the Weather Bureau was transferred into its present home, the Department of Commerce, and a river division, now known as the the NWS Office of Water Prediction, was formed. The Euclidian distance for Modified Constructed Analog Method is defined as follows:Hence,where is the forecast predictor during 15 May to 15 October 2010 (forecast data). This method provides an estimate of rainfall using different atmospheric parameters like average temperature and cloud cover to predict the rainfall. to 0.5° long. A six-hour unit hydrograph describes how much water is flowing into the stream from runoff in six hour periods. Creating the situations of a consistent spatial pattern of rainfall at the stations is required. The selected model has the This method requires a high-performance computer to generate sophisticated models and may also require large amounts of input data. These are the initial conditions for comparison between CFSR in years 1979 to 2009 (analysis data) and CFSv2 in the year 2010 (forecast data) [19–23]. The research method is based on the ARIMA model,which was introduced by Box and Jenkins in 1970, to establish the relation between the rainfall and the groundwater level’s change, and to estimate the influences of the drainage system on groundwater level. The data demonstrated that the amount of precipitation has increased due to a low pressure trough and a southwestern monsoon that arrives to cover Thailand during the rainy season. In the standard analysis for the daily rainfall in Thailand, the past rainfall data during the years of 1979 to 2010 were recorded with measurement tools such as the rain gauge. Scatter plot of observed (horizontal axis) and forecast (vertical) rainfall for (a) AM, (b) CAM, and (c) MCAM. The period of greater warmth in Sudan appears to coincide with that of rainfall depletion reported post mid-1960s. In this research, the results for forecasting rainfall from 15 May to 15 October in the year 2010 using AM, CAM, and MCAM are compared. It is discovered that the rainfall forecast during 15 May to 15 October 2010 in five regions by using the MCAM gave results that are similar to the observed stations at NKH, SUR, SAK, PCB, SPB, SRT, NST, and PHK1 which are satisfactory. Moreover TDNN, FFNN and lag FFNN performed well for yearly, monthly and weekly rainfall forecasting respectively. The CAM uses a combination of analog days to forecast the temperature and improve the National Multimodel Ensemble’s (NMME) method during the March-April-May (MAM) precipitation forecasts specifically used in studies at equatorial East Africa (EA) (by Shukla et al.) From this hydrograph, the forecaster can begin to make a forecast. This book represents a sense of the weather community as guided by the discussions of a Board on Atmospheric Sciences and Climate community workshop held in summer 2009. The NCEP Climate Forecast System Version 2 (CFSv2) data are 6-hourly produced from the National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP) Climate Forecast System (CFS), which is initialized four times per day (0000, 0600, 1200, and 1800 UTC). The ABRFC passes these forecasts along to the National Weather Service Weather Forecast Office that has hydrologic responsibility for that area. This can simulate local climate conditions in greater detail. The average forecasted rainfall was summed and compared with the average actual observed rainfall for all 30 TMD stations in Thailand. Step 5. Water enters the well through one or more inlet pipes. The model domain of CFSR and CFSv2 covers the area between latitude 90°S to 90°N and longitude 180°W to 180°E. Even when the rain stops, water will continue to flow into the drain until the water from the far part of the parking lot reaches the drain. Tropical cyclone rainfall forecasting involves using scientific models and other tools to predict the After examining and modifying the model output, the forecaster runs a computer program that automatically prepares and formats the forecast for dissemination. Statistical Downscaling for Rainfall Forecasts Using Modified Constructed Analog Method in Thailand, Department of Mathematics, Faculty of Science, King Mongkut’s University of Technology Thonburi (KMUTT), 126 Pracha Uthit Road, Bang Mod, Thung Khru, Bangkok 10140, Thailand, The Joint Graduate School of Energy and Environment, King Mongkut’s University of Technology Thonburi (KMUTT), 126 Pracha Uthit Road, Bang Mod, Thung Khru, Bangkok 10140, Thailand, Ratchaburi Learning Park, King Mongkut’s University of Technology Thonburi (KMUTT), Rang Bua, Chom Bueng, Ratchaburi 70150, Thailand, http://nomads.ncdc.noaa.gov/data.php?name=access#cfs-refor-data, Rainfall forecast (mm) at 0000, 0600, 1200, and 1800 UTC, J. To evaluate the performance of each of the three indexes, the prediction error can be calculated: the correlation coefficient , the root mean square error (RMSE), and the mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) [26]. Now the forecaster adds the amounts of the initial 0.1 inches of runoff for the 24 hour forecast and the amount for the 0.1 inches of runoff that occurred six hours later (570 cfs + 430 cfs = 1000 cfs) to get 1000 cfs to be added to the stream flow 24 hours in the future. Hence, the present downscaling approach is suitable for the simulation of rainfall under changed climate from GCMs [10]. If the amount of water going through that drain was recorded and put on a graph of water flow versus time, it would look something like this: Any graph of water flow versus time is called a hydrograph. The data is identified in histogram graphs (Figures 10–12). We notice that 1 inch of runoff there will give us 5700 cfs. To do so, we need to split our time series data set into the train and test set. It was not until the invention of the electric telegraph in 1835 that the modern age of weather forecasting began. Statistical downscaling techniques are based on a relationship between the variables that are solved by the General Circulation Models (GCMs) and the observed predictions. The Dynamical approaches are implemented using numerical rainfall forecasting method. This paper describes empirical method technique belongs to the regression approach which try to make a short-term forecast of rainfalls over specified region in our state. Another point of interest is the correlation between observed and average rainfall from all predictors in Table 7 (Figures 10–12), which is higher than 0.82 using AM, and the lowest performance correlation is 0.79 using CAM. AM gave average rainfall similar to the observed rainfall at Q850 which was 1091.04 mm and the percentage error was 2.54%. The BCM uses differences in observed climatology mean values between the GCM and observations from historical reference periods and is used to “correct” future GCM simulations [1]. The MCAM investigates rainfall forecasting in five regions at 30 stations in Thailand. To determine the performance of each predictor, the RSME and MAPE can be checked [26]. This is an open access article distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited. From the results of rainfall forecasting for the three methods, the correlation and percentage error can be determined. Rainfall amounts are also necessary for river forecasting, since, without rainfall data, one cannot predict runoff, and therefore, future stages. This is defined aswhere is forecast predictor during 15 May 2010 (forecast data), is a predictor from observation during 15 May between the years 1979 and 2009 (analysis data), and (number of grid points) [26]. This method is used to forecast the daily rainfall and was received from the Thai Meteorological Department (TMD) from the period during 1979 to 2010 at thirty stations. The process for the AM, the CAM, and the MCAM of the research in this paper is described in Figure 3. It takes time for the runoff to flow into the river and the amount of time depends on where in the basin the rain fell. And then, set the date of each main drainage system’s completion to be the intervention model’s starting time to analyze the effect of each area’s drainage system. In M1, the best regression developed for ACF is BDTR since it has the highest coefficient of determination, R2, … Surface runoff causes the stream to rise quickly after it rains because it is the fastest way water can reach a river or stream, much faster than through infiltration. Accuracy is investigated in the method along with the percentage error. Predictors: T850. Observations between the periods 1970 to 2005 are used as testing data. An analog day in the historical record (past data) will have the same characteristics as a predictor at a given target time. The updated new value of the weight at iteration can be written aswhere is the smallest Euclidean distance that was selected in 30 analog days from a total of 155 analog days with predictor data and is the number of analog days . In 1903, an extensive and disastrous flood struck the Kansas River, further raising public cries for improved flood forecasting. There are a variety of methods for statistical downscaling [5], for example, the Delta Method (DM), Bias-Correction Method (BCM), Constructed Analogs Method (CAM), Localized Constructed Analogs Method (LOCA), Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs), Least Squares Support Vector Machines (LS-SVM), nonparametric kernel regression (NKR) [8–10], and so forth. Found inside – Page 258This paper proposes an ensemble of forecasting methods based on neural networks/recurrent neural networks (E-LSTM). The aim of the algorithm is to help organizing the planting cycle using short-term rainfall forecasts when the data are ... Rainfall forecast plays an important role in maintaining water resources, the environment, and agriculture. The Linear Regression method is modified in order to obtain the most optimum error percentage by iterating and adding some percentage of error to the input values. Forecasting is required in many situations. A very interesting trend has been noticed for the quantum of monthly rainfall, i.e., it was found significantly decreased after 1996 for the months of winter season (October-February) while at par for the months of summer season except May only which was found increased as compared to before 1996. rainfall. Anglers will change their techniques or catch based on stream levels. Found inside – Page 278As mentioned in Chapter 1 under the scope of hydrometeorology, rainfall forecast is an important input in river flow ... concepts that are useful when we deal with forecasting methods on the basis of large historical volumes of data. 2019–2020 Rainfall Forecasting. The constituent models of the hybrid method are the ANN, Multivariate Adaptive Regression Splines (MARS), the k-nearest neighbour, and radial However, the resolution of the forecast is still too low for area-specific applications. Thailand frequently faces large quantities of rain that causes the problem of flooding and damages the agriculture and affects industry and the people. However, the MCAM gave the minimum percentage error (13.66%), which shows that the rainfall forecast is closest to the actual observed value. The National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP) Climate Forecast System Reanalysis (CFSR) consists of 6-hourly time-series product from January 1979 to December 2010. The analog days of the analog method for each forecast day are determined from the corresponding 1 day of analysis data. Found inside – Page 63The experimental results also show that LS–SVM–LNE method is better than other methods. ... 4 Conclusions Accurate rainfall forecasting is crucial for a frequent unanticipated flash flood region to avoid life losing and economic loses. [25] described that the basic idea of AM is to find a predictor from the historical record which has the same characteristics as a predictor at a given target time. BCSD is the GCM-simulated values that are “mapped” by quintile onto historical observed data. A downscaling method is required. Six different rainfall-runoff models and three routing methods are widely used by NWS River Forecast Centers. × 0.5° lat. Step 3. For averages rainfall forecast during 15 May to 15 October 2010 at 30 stations in Thailand. (a) shows the bar graphs for rainfall in millimeters as follows: the average forecasted rainfall by using the AM (blue), the average forecasted rainfall by using the CAM (green), the average forecasted rainfall by using the MCAM (orange), and the actual observed rainfall (red). The locations of the meteorological stations in Thailand for downscaling at the 30 stations (1979–2010) are divided into five regions: north, northeast, central, western, and south. The data of the actual daily precipitation amount from the year 1979 to 2010 at the TMD are used for validation against the current year 2010.

This report gives a short overview about requirements on radar data as the base for QPF methods (section 2), focusing on requirements for the operational use of radar data (2.1.), possible impacts of limitations of the radar technique on ... This is another way that the application of statistical downscaling can be used for rainfall forecasting by using the MCAM in Thailand. The result showed that the MCAM gave the correlation value of 0.8 resulting in a reduced percentage error of 13.66%. As you can see below, from 0 to 6 hours, 800 cubic feet per second (cfs) of runoff water has been added to the stream. However, these three methods gave the various correlations which are acceptable to statistical calculations and shown in Figure 9. Techniques that employ regional climate models using fine grid spacing are quite efficient for forecasting [5–8]. Analysis of rainfall data (1981-2012) of Uttar Pradesh reveals significant decreasing trend in total quantum of annual rainfall. According to survey RNN, FFNN, and TDNN are suitable for rainfall prediction as compared to other statistical and numerical forecasting methods. As the country grew, the need for expanded hydrologic services grew with it. Then, we can determine the rainfall forecast at the monitoring stations according to the principle of downscaling techniques. Industry and Utilities Compute the measurement to find the analog day of the AM using (4), the CAM using (5), and the MCAM using (7). The closer the values of correlation coefficient are to 1, the more accurate the data will be. The water found in the water table is called groundwater. The tipping bucket gage has its disadvantages, however. Let be predictors from the GCM:Let be predictors from observation (analysis data):Therefore, Euclidian distance for the analog method to find analog day is defined as inwhere is forecast predictor during 15 May to 15 October 2010 (forecast data, d). Utilities, such as water and sewage treatment plants, can also have their operations affected by river and stream levels. When rain falls into the funnel, it fills one of the little buckets on the rocker mechanism. Four predictors are used in each of the two datasets at the National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP) Climate Forecast System Reanalysis (CFSR) and NCEP Climate Forecast System Version 2 (CFSv2) for the area covering Thailand. Patchalai Anuchaivong, Dusadee Sukawat, Anirut Luadsong, "Statistical Downscaling for Rainfall Forecasts Using Modified Constructed Analog Method in Thailand", The Scientific World Journal, vol. Forecast daily rainfall value based on the analog day. Performances of the rainfall forecast between observed and simulated rainfall for all predictors are shown and summarized in Table 7 (Figures 13–15). This type of gage is usually mounted to the side of a bridge. The performance of the forecast predictor during 15 May to 15 October 2010 (forecast data) in Thailand is shown in Figure 8. According to different circumstances of stations,... (2) Polynomial fitting is used for each segment (7 th order polynomial is used here). Step 2. The histogram of the comparison between observed stations and simulations for four predictors, represented by an average from all 24 hours, mean sea level pressure, temperature, moisture, and geopotential height at 850 hPa of MCAM decomposition. Selection of 30 analog days with the minimum Euclidean distance comes from the calculation of 1979–2009 which is similar to the previous year, 2010. Snowmelt calculations are based on the air temperature and the amount of sunshine. This type of gage consists of an antifreeze-filled collection bucket mounted on top of a scale. To measure the liquid equivalent of the frozen precipitation, the contents of the can are melted and poured back into the measuring tube for measurement.

Thus it was concluded that the most appropriate method for forecasting rainfall accumulations over short periods ... The difference between constructed analog and analog method is that the constructed analog creates the analog from a linear combination of 30 analog days. The CAM predictors gave the following correlation values: G850 gave 0.83, MSLP gave 0.87, Q850 gave 0.49, and T850 gave 0.79. ARIMA (1,0,1)(0,1,1) model for rainfall was identified the best model to forecast rainfall for next 4years with confidence level of 95 percent by analyzing last 27 year's data (1990-2016). Statistical downscaling techniques are based on a relationship between the variables that are solved by the General Circulation Models (GCMs) and the observed predictions.

From the studies that have been done, it can be concluded that the ... A study found that many researchers have constructed predictions with experimental methods in a variety of ways that used statistical downscaling. Prior to applying the methods, two input selection techniques are used. A constructed analog is defined aswhere is month , is outside the range , is year , and are coefficients to be determined to minimize the difference between and . It can reduce the problem of errors in forecasts, the need of intensive computational resources, and the management of large data while simplifying output data. The National Weather Service's River and Flood Program traces its origins back to the start of the National Weather Service itself. The quantum of monthly rainfall was found significantly decreased after 1996 for initial and last months of monsoon season, i.e., June and September while increased for the middle months, i.e., July and August as compared to before 1996. The weight of the Modified Constructed Analog Method based on the weighted sum method by solution to the problem presented in (7) is if the weight is positive for all. Correlation between observed and average rainfall from all predictors by average AM, average CAM, and average MCAM. For the modelling of the rainfall, a novel hybrid multi-model method is proposed. The final component of streamflow is the routed flow, the water that is coming downstream from the previous gage point. River stages are our most important type of data. Although these techniques present a limited prediction skill owing to the low persistence in time that usually characterizes rainfall, the moderate data availability and reduced computer time required to use them, make their application very attractive in the context of real-time flood forecasting (Toth et al., 2000, Monira et al., 2010). Location map of the study area in Thailand. The low pressure trough that passes across the country causes precipitation starting from the beginning of the rainy season throughout the months of May and July. The water in the well will be at the same level as the river, so the recording equipment above it actually records the water level in the well.

The Bureau of Meteorology began a method of forecasting rainfall using a combination, or ensemble, of different forecast models in 2006. It is termed The Poor Man's Ensemble (PME). Its forecasts are more accurate over time than any of the individual models composing the ensemble. Many types of aquatic recreation can be affected by river and stream levels. A forecaster can estimate the amount of runoff for each type based on certain characteristics of the weather and the river basin. Besides the obvious need for flood forecasts, some riverside industries are required to adjust their operations, such as water intake, based on the river levels. Time series theories are applied to analyze the relation between the rainfall and the groundwater level after the operation of the drainage system. These indicators, or an actual sighting, often trigger the tornado warning. The steps for the simulation of AM, CAM, and MCAM are shown in Figure 4. This method continued to be in use until the late 1950s. Therefore, the MCAM is an alternative approach to forecast daily precipitation. Now what would happen if another 0.1 inches of runoff was generated by rainfall 6 hours later.

Dynamical downscaling is a technique that gathers output data from GCMs and uses that data to select a suitable regional and numerical model with a higher spatial resolution. The grid combines every six-hour forecast at 0000, 0600, 1200, and 1800 UTC per day and the resolution is 0.5 × 0.5 degrees latitude-longitude [19–21]. This research displays data for the observed rainfall and simulated rainfall using the four predictors which are divided into five regions in Thailand. For forecasting rainfall on the basis of past values, a variety of time series models are available these are referred as Box-Jenkins methodology Box and Jenkins.Chief objectives of this book is many folds as listed as to compare and ... Similarity measure is a function which computes the degree of similarity between a pair of objects. The area of study is between 2°S to 8°N and 36°E to 46°E. This river division divided the country into river districts, each with an associated Weather Bureau office to cater to the hydrologic needs of that area. After computation, the MLR equation is set as y=aX1+bX2+cX3 Where, a, b, c are regression coefficient X1= September rainfall of year Y X2= October rainfall of year Y When the southwestern monsoon comes to replace the northwestern monsoon during mid-August, northern Thailand will start to have cold weather and decreased rainfall. Found insideIn this book, multiple experts present their work on various engineering characteristics of rainfall. The topics presented will update the readers on the recent developments and their applications across different regions of the world. In its simplest form, Lag/K is a two variable routing method. The MCAM can estimate the rainfall forecast (mm/h) at the station. These are the results from the experiment of rainfall forecast between observed and simulated rainfall by the AM, the CAM, and the MCAM taking into account atmospheric predictors over Thailand regions at MSLP, T850, Q850, and G850. Climate change has significant impacts on human activity and natural disasters [3]. The forecast predictor during 15 May to 15 October 2010 at 30 stations in Thailand is based on statistical downscaling. History of National Weather Service River Forecasting. So, statistical downscaling applications are preferable in the present day studies and are considered as one of the most cost-effective methods in local-impact estimates of climate scenarios and rainfall forecasts [18].
