Analysis of rainfall data of some West African countries using wavelet transform and nonlinear time series techniques
ABSTRACT The chaotic behaviour of monthly rainfall data of Benin, Cote d’Ivoire, Cameroon, Ghana, Niger, Nigeria, Senegal and Togo between January 1901 and December 2015 were investigated using wavelet transformation analysis and time series techniques. Wavelet power spectrum was used to split the time series into different scales. Power concentrations between 8 and 16 months were observed for the selected locations. The embedding dimension, delay and largest Lyapunov exponent (LE) were calculated. We observed positive LE ranging from 0.13 to 0.36, indicating the rainfall was chaotic. Ghana had the highest values of LE, while the lowest LE was observed at Niger..
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Spatial Science publishes papers broadly across the spatial sciences including such areas as cartography, geodesy, geographic information science, hydrography, digital image analysis and photogrammetry, remote sensing, surveying and related areas. Two types of papers are published by he journal: Research Papers and Professional Papers.
Research Papers (including reviews) are peer-reviewed and must meet a minimum standard of making a contribution to the knowledge base of an area of the spatial sciences. This can be achieved through the empirical or theoretical contribution to knowledge that produces significant new outcomes.
It is anticipated that Professional Papers will be written by industry practitioners. Professional Papers describe innovative aspects of professional practise and applications that advance the development of the spatial industry.
