Projection the long-term ungauged rainfall using integrated Statistical Downscaling Model and Geographic Information System (SDSM-GIS) model

Abstract

An accuracy in the hydrological modelling will be affected when having limited data sources especially at ungauged areas. Due to this matter, it will not receiving any significant attention especially on the potential hydrologic extremes. Thus, the objective was to analyse the accuracy of the long-term projected rainfall at ungauged rainfall station using integrated Statistical Downscaling Model and Geographic Information System (SDSM-GIS) model. The SDSM was used as a climate agent to predict the changes of the climate trend in Δ2030s by gauged and ungauged stations. There were five predictors set have been selected to form the local climate at the region which provided by NCEP (validated) and CanESM2-RCP4.5 (projected). According to the statistical analyses, the SDSM was controlled to produce reliable validated results with lesser %MAE (<23%) and higher R. The projected rainfall was suspected to decrease 14% in Δ2030s. All the RCPs agreed the long term rainfall pattern was consistent to the historical with lower annual rainfall intensity. The RCP8.5 shows the least rainfall changes. These findings then used to compare the accuracy of monthly rainfall at control station (Stn 2). The GIS-Kriging method being as an interpolation agent was successfully to produce similar rainfall trend with the control station. The accuracy was estimated to reach 84%. Comparing between ungauged and gauged stations, the small %MAE in the projected monthly results between gauged and ungauged stations as a proved the integrated SDSM-GIS model can producing a reliable long-term rainfall generation at ungauged station.

Climate Change Impacts on Evapotranspiration, Crop Yield, and Green and Blue Water Footprints of Main Crops in a Semi-arid Region

“…The evaluation results demonstrate that the SDSM model effectively simulates the mean and standard deviation components of precipitation, as well as minimum and maximum temperatures, closely aligning with the observational averages. These findings are consistent with the results of the study by Tukimat et al (2019). The simulated maximum and minimum temperatures show a better agreement with the observed values compared to the simulated precipitation.…”

Spatiotemporal variability and key influencing factors of river fecal coliform within a typical complex watershed

“…Meteorological factors came from daily monitoring data of the five national meteorological stations in and around the study area (available at http://www.resdc.cn/Default.aspx), and the values were converted into monthly averages. The ordinary kriging method (Tukimat et al, 2019) used in geographical spatial interpolation was adopted to calculate the rainfall amount, temperature and solar radiation in each catchment area, and the results are detailed in the Figs. S1eS6.…”

Study on the Impact of Future Climate Change on Extreme Meteorological and Hydrological Elements in the Upper Reaches of the Minjiang River

“…Gulacha et al [17] assessed that the model and the observed showed a good ft in the Wami-Ruvu River Basin of Tanzania, and the SDSM's R 2 values between raw and model for temperature ranged from 0.42 to 0.98. Tukimat et al [18] found that the SDSM successfully provided long-term climate pattern at the gauged stations with an R value close to 1.0 in Kuantan River Basin of Malaysia. Dehghan et al [19] assessed that there is a good agreement between the simulated and the observed precipitation, and R 2 for precipitation is greater than 0.63.…”
