Interpolation methods for the spatiotemporal analysis of rainfall pattern changes of Peninsular Malaysia due to climate change were evaluated. Inverse Distance Weighting (IDW) and Ordinary Kriging (OK), Geographical Weighted Regression (GWR) and Multi-scale Geographical Weighted Regression (MGWR) methods were used. Based on the statistic results of RMSE, MAE and R2, the MGWR was the best performing model. To investigate the spatial interpolations with the MGWR, the period considered was arbitrarily and conveniently divided into six 5-year sub-periods for spatiotemporal analysis. Monthly Rainfall, Number of Wet Days and Maximum Daily Rainfall were parameters identified for the analyses. The results showed that the Peninsular Malaysia generally receives relatively higher rainfall amounts and intensities over the northern part of the East Coast region, while lower values were commonly received at the Central region. Changes in spatial pattern were also observed in the maps generated for the onset and withdrawal months of both the Northeast Monsoons and the Southwest Monsoons. The sub-period analyses also showed that Peninsular Malaysia has gradual increase of rainfall intensity due to climate change and is susceptible and vulnerable to El Nino/La Nina events. Hence, in the future Peninsular Malaysia is likely to have increasing occurrence of extreme rainfall events. � 2021 THE AUTHORS Final 2023-05-29T09:38:10Z 2023-05-29T09:38:10Z 2022 Article 10.1016/j.asej.2021.09.001 2-s2.0-85115112968 https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85115112968&doi=10.1016%2fj.asej.2021.09.001&partnerID=40&md5=f27c992763be3fb1da21430aeca3a9ce https://irepository.uniten.edu.my/handle/123456789/26961 13 2 101571 All Open Access, Gold Ain Shams University Scopus |
