Abstract
PENAFIEL, V. M. and ANDRADE, M.. MONTE CARLO SIMULATION FOR RAINFALL RECORDS. Revista Boliviana de Física [online]. 2013, vol.22, n.22, pp.21-28. ISSN 1562-3823.
We propose a simple Monte Carlo model for the purpose of simulating annual profiles of daily rainfall. This model reproduces the qualitative behaviour of 20 anual records for 3 stations located at different heights above the sea level and along the transversal axis of the Bolivian territory. We have concentrated mainly on the acumulated annual rainfall, the annual frequency of dry days, the linear correlation of annual records and the properties of the Fourier transform taken oven the totality of the data.
Keywords : Monte Carlo method and applications; rainfall .
