Interpolation of Rainfall at Small Scale in a Mediterranean Region
Relation between rainfall and altitude within a simple space-time model
Conference paper
Abstract
This paper describes a statistical space-time model for rain-fall in Mediterranean regions. The rain-fall is supposed to be the sum of a deterministic component and a random function enjoying spatial second-order stationary and without temporal correlation. Under these assumptions, we analyse the dependence of the trend upon time and compute the optimal linear predictor. The proposed methods are implemented and discussed on a two year data set of daily recordings.
