Analysis
of Rainfall Intensity at Cherrapunjee I
had collected daily rainfall data of Cherrapunjee from 1978. I was
interested in finding out the number of days it had rained in different
ranges of rainfall. I had a developed a program to find it out in dbase
IV. I had noted the results what I had got as reported hereunder. I
could not do the same for the subsequent years after my hard disk
collapsed. I shall try to update this when I can do the analysis
again after I can get the data on the computer again and develop again a
program for that. Wonder whether I can still remember the
programming (It is 2006 as I write this.) If you find it in anyway
interesting please look up the chart below.
