Rainfall forecasting model using univariate techniques / Ainur Shuhada Abdul Shukur, Nurhafisza Afzan Hassan and Zamria Awaludin
Rainfall is crucial to daily living, whether it be for agriculture, the development of industry, or human survival. Floods, one of the most frequent natural disasters in Malaysia, are caused by poor management and a lack of rainfall predictions. Hydrologists claim that there are numerous factors tha...

Probabilities Rainfall is crucial to daily living, whether it be for agriculture, the development of industry, or human survival. Floods, one of the most frequent natural disasters in Malaysia, are caused by poor management and a lack of rainfall predictions. Hydrologists claim that there are numerous factors that lead to flood events. The meteorological component (also known as climate change) and the change in land use elements are the two most important factors. In recent decades, flooding has been aggravated by these two variables, particularly in areas with monsoonal catchments like Malaysia. This study aims to measure the impact of rainfall during extreme rainfall in Kelantan. To forecast the rainfall in Kelantan, univariate approaches were used. There are three objectives in this study. Firstly, to model a mathematical equation of rainfall in Kelantan specifically by using univariate modelling techniques. Next, to identify the best model in univariate modelling techniques using Single Exponential Smoothing, Double Exponential Smoothing and Holt’s method by comparing the Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE), Mean Squared Error (MSE) and Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE). Lastly, the study would also measure the forecast value of the Kelantan rainfall model for a year ahead based on the selected best model of univariate modelling techniques. The best model will be selected to forecast the rainfall starting January 2014 until December 2020. Findings show that Single Exponential Smoothing (SES) was determined to be the best model to anticipate the future rainfall in Kelantan a year in advance. The maximum value for this model occurs in December, but it continues to be in a position that is not much different in a year. There is no need to store data for many periods because it requires the retention of only a limited amount of data. Therefore, the Single Exponential Smoothing Model is appropriate for rainfall forecasting. 2022 Student Project NonPeerReviewed text en https://ir.uitm.edu.my/id/eprint/80746/1/80746.pdf Rainfall forecasting model using univariate techniques / Ainur Shuhada Abdul Shukur, Nurhafisza Afzan Hassan and Zamria Awaludin.
