The purpose of this study is to assess patterns of extreme rainfall and this study focused on the changes between two phases for extreme rainfall, for the period of 1971 to 2011 and from 1995 to 2011 in Kuala Lumpur and Selangor. The generalised extreme value distribution appears to outperform other distribution functions such as two-parameter Gumbel and lognormal and the three-parameter generalized extreme value (GEV), lognormal (LN3) and log Pearson (LP3) in modeling the one-hour annual maximum rainfall series from 14 stations. The estimated return period of 20, 50, 100-year for each stations based on the best fitting model for the periods of entire record data and from 1995-2011 have been computed. More than 70% of estimated quantiles using rainfall data from 1995-2011 are higher compared to estimation using the entire recorded data. |
