1 Proceedings of the SAAC Seminar on Agricultural Applications of Meteorology, held on December 2003, published by SMC in 2004 EGESSION FOECASTING OF PE-MONSOON AINFALL IN BANGLADESH SAMAENDA KAMAKA Bangladesh Meteorological Department Dhaka, Bangladesh ABSTACT In this paper the interannual variation of monthly and seasonal country averaged rainfall during the pre-monsoon season has been studied. The correlations between monthly-to-monthly rainfall, monthly to seasonal rainfall during the pre-monsoon season, and between monthly winter rainfall and the monthly and seasonal rainfall during the pre-monsoon season over Dhaka, Chittagong, Khulna, ajshahi, Sylhet and Barisal divisions and also over the country have been studied. It has been found that the monthly country averaged rainfall has interannual variation and it has increasing linear trends during the pre-monsoon season. The rates of increase of country-averaged rainfall are mm/year, mm/year and mm/year in. April and May, respectively. The variation of monthly country averaged rainfall over Bangladesh maintains a similar pattern of variation with year cycle. The country-averaged rainfall of has insignificant correlation with the country-averaged rainfall of April and May. The correlation between rainfall in April and that in May is also insignificant. But the country-averaged rainfall in has strong correlations with the country-averaged rainfall of May and -May i.e. the seasonal rainfall upto of 99% level of significance. The country averaged rainfall in has a moderate correlation with the monthly and seasonal country averaged rainfall during the pre-monsoon season in Bangladesh and the correlation coefficients are significant upto 95% level of significance. The country averaged rainfall in February and the total country averaged rainfall in and February do not have significant correlation with the monthly and seasonal country averaged rainfall. The average rainfall in over Dhaka division has moderate correlation with the rainfall in -May; the correlation coefficient is , which is statistically significant upto a level of 95%. The rainfall in has a moderate correlation coefficient of with the rainfall in -May over Dhaka division and this coefficient is also significant up to 95% level of significance. The average rainfall in over Chittagong division has moderate to good correlation with the average rainfall in April, May and -May (i.e. seasonal rainfall). The rainfall in over Chittagong division has also moderate correlation with the rainfall in -May. The correlation coefficients are , , and respectively. These coefficients are statistically significant up to 95%. Over Sylhet division, the rainfall in has only correlation with the seasonal rainfall, being significant up to 95% level of significance. Over Barisal division, the average rainfall in has moderate correlation with the average rainfall in April and the total average rainfall in -May; the correlation coefficients are and respectively. A number of regression equations for the significant correlations are developed which will be used in the forecasting of monthly and seasonal average rainfall over different divisions as well as over Bangladesh. 1. Introduction Two transition periods between southwest and northeast monsoons over the India- Bangladesh-Pakistan subcontinent are characterized by local severe storms. In Bangladesh, these transition periods are known as pre-monsoon (-May) and post-monsoon (October-November) seasons. Of these, it is the pre-monsoon season when most of the local severe storms occur over different parts of Bangladesh with frequent intervals. These storms 101
2 Proceedings of the SAAC Seminar on Agricultural Applications of Meteorology, held on December 2003, published by SMC in 2004 are popularly known as Nor westers or Kalbaishakhi in Bangladesh, West Bengal and Assam of India and Adhi (dust storms) in North India. Nor wester activities in these parts of the region are directly linked up with the apparent Movement of the sun towards north causing steady rise in temperature over Southern India and gradually extending to the north. Such a situation becomes increasingly prominent from and prolongs up to the end of May. Frequency of nor westers in Bangladesh usually reaches its maximum in May, having maximum value over the Sylhet-Mymensingh-Dhaka region (Karmakar, 1998) and is comparatively minimum over the northwestern and southwestern parts of Bangladesh. There are occasions when nor westers have been observed to occur in late February and early June. The occurrences of nor westers in late February can be attributed to the early withdrawal of winter from Bangladesh, Assam, Bihar, West Bengal and adjoining area as well as due to the penetration of the easterly lows through the southern tip of India and their subsequent movement towards north-east (Das et al., 1994), while those in early June are due to delay in the onset of south-west monsoon over this region. The delay in the occurrence of nor westers over Bangladesh is due to presence of intense subtropical high over the Bay of Bengal. Nor westers/thunderstorms bring the first rain after a long dry and hot weather during the pre-monsoon season. This rain is very important for agriculture. The knowledge of rainfall in any region is very helpful in sound cropping. In India a number scientists made efforts to correlate summer monsoon rainfall with different meteorological parameters (Venkataraman, 1955; Kulkarni and Pant, 1969; Banerjee et al., 1978; Mooley and Shukla, 1989; Upadhyay et al., 1990). But no works have been done to predict the pre-monsoon rainfall in a country like Bangladesh. In the present study, attempts have been made to correlate the monthly and seasonal rainfall during the pre-monsoon season rainfall with that of the previous months in Bangladesh and develop the regression equations accordingly. 2. Data used \Monthly rainfall data for through May for the period 1971 to 2000 for 35 stations (as shown in Fig. 1) of Bangladesh Meteorological Department (BMD) have been collected and utilized in the present study. It may be mentioned that rainfall of some stations are not available for one or two years. These data have been obtained by the interpolation method using win surfer software. 3. Methodology Linear regression equation has been used to correlate the monthly and seasonal country averaged rainfall in Bangladesh (here-in-after called rainfall in Bangladesh) with the rainfall of previous months (predictands) during the pre-monsoon season. The correlation coefficients are also computed. The significant test for the correlation coefficient has been made with the help of Student s t-distribution (Alder and oessler, 1964) given by r t ( n 2) (1 r 2 ) Where r is the correlation coefficient, (n-2) is the degree of freedom and n is the sample size. At 5% level (i.e., 95% level of significance), if t cal t 0.05, the correlation coefficients are said to be significant. 102

The correlations between monthly to monthly rainfall, monthly to seasonal rainfall during the pre-monsoon season, and between monthly winter rainfall and the monthly and seasonal rainfall during the pre-monsoon season over Dhaka, Chittagong, Khulna, ajshahi, Sylhet and Barisal divisions and also over the country have been studied. The scattered diagrams for each case have been constructed and the regression equations have been obtained. 4.1 Interanual variation of pre-monsoon rainfall in Bangladesh The interannual variation of monthly country averaged rainfall during the pre-monsoon season has been studied and the linear and polynomial trend curves have been fitted. The variation is shown in Fig

The rates of increase are mm/year, mm/year and mm/year in, April and May respectively. The polynomial trends show that the variation of monthly rainfall maintains a similar pattern of variation with year cycle, which implies that there must be correlation among the monthly rainfall during the pre-monsoon season in Bangladesh 4.2 Correlation of country averaged monthly and seasonal rainfall during the pre-monsoon season The correlation of rainfall of with rainfall of April, May and -May is given in Table 1 along with the correlation coefficients. The table shows that the rainfall of has insignificant correlation with rainfall of April. The table also shows insignificant correlation between rainfall in April and that in May. But the rainfall in has strong correlations with the rainfall of May and -May i.e. the seasonal rainfall upto of 99% level of significance. The scattered diagrams of these correlations are prepared and the regression equations are developed. One example of the scattered diagram is given in Fig
