Analysis of rainfall variability using generalized linear models: A case study from the west of Ireland
[1] In the early 1990s a cluster of extreme flood events occurred in the south Galway region of western Ireland, and this led to speculation of changing rainfall patterns in the area. In this paper we illustrate the use of generalized linear models (GLMs) to test for such changes and quantify their structure. GLMs, long established in the statistical literature, provide a flexible and rigorous ...
متن کاملEvaluation of the Efficiency of Linear and Nonlinear Models in Predicting Monthly Rainfall (Case Study: Hamedan Province)
In this research, we used the support vector machine (SVM), support vector machine combine with wavelet transform (W-SVM), ARMAX and ARIMA models to predict the monthly values of precipitation. The study considers monthly time series data for precipitation stations located in Hamedan province during a 25-year period (1998-2016). The 25-year simulation period was divided into 17 years for t...
متن کاملComparative Study Among Different Time Series Models for Monthly Rainfall Forecasting in Shiraz Synoptic Station, Iran
In this research, monthly rainfall of Shiraz synoptic station from March 1971 to February 2016 was studied using different time series models by ITSM Software. Results showed that the ARMA (1,12) model based on Hannan-Rissanen method was the best model which fitted to the data. Then, to assess the verification and accuracy of the model, the monthly rainfall for 60 months (from March 2011 to Feb...
متن کاملLinear and generalized linear models for the detection of QTL effects on within-subject variability
Quantitative trait loci (QTLs) may affect not only the mean of a trait but also its variability. A special aspect is the variability between multiple measured traits of genotyped animals, such as the within-litter variance of piglet birth weights. The sample variance of repeated measurements is assigned as an observation for every genotyped individual. It is shown that the conditional distribut...
متن کاملLongitudinal Data Analysis Using Generalized Linear Models
This paper proposes an extension of generalized linear models to the analysis of longitudinal data. We introduce a class of estimating equations that give consistent estimates of the regression parameters and of their variance under mild assumptions about the time dependence. The estimating equations are derived without specifying the joint distribution of a subject's observations yet they redu...
