Abstract
Using multifractal detrended fluctuation analysis (MF-DFA), the pre-monsoon rainfall and Indian summer monsoon rainfall (ISMR) from 1871 to 2016 are examined in this work for northeast India. According to observations, rainfall during the pre-monsoon and summer monsoons both exhibit persistence and quasi-randomness. The generalized Hurst Exponent value indicates that the pre-monsoon rainfall time series and the summer monsoon rainfall time series have long-term positive auto-correlation. The fluctuation function obtained through MF-DFA by means of the slopes of ln(Fq(s)) against ln(s) plots is dominated by segments with significant variance, which leads us to believe that the rainfall time series related to the pre- and summer monsoon exhibit multifractal behaviour. The presence of multifractality in the pre- and summer monsoon rainfall time series is further substantiated through the association between the qth-order variance and the length scale.
期刊介绍：
Dynamics of Atmospheres and Oceans is an international journal for research related to the dynamical and physical processes governing atmospheres, oceans and climate.
Authors are invited to submit articles, short contributions or scholarly reviews in the following areas:
•Dynamic meteorology
•Physical oceanography
•Geophysical fluid dynamics
•Climate variability and climate change
•Atmosphere-ocean-biosphere-cryosphere interactions
•Prediction and predictability
•Scale interactions
Papers of theoretical, computational, experimental and observational investigations are invited, particularly those that explore the fundamental nature - or bring together the interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary aspects - of dynamical and physical processes at all scales. Papers that explore air-sea interactions and the coupling between atmospheres, oceans, and other components of the climate system are particularly welcome.
