Prediction of Precipitation Based on Weighted Markov Chain in Dangshan

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to predict the precipitation in Dangshan using the weighted Markov chain and fuzzy set theory. Based on annual precipitation in Dangshan during 1961-2015, we apply the weighted Markov chain to predict the annual precipitation from 2011--2015. The results show that our proposed model has high prediction accuracy which provides a way worth of exploration for predicting annual precipitation in Dangshan.
