Abstract

In this work the rainfall in Marathawada, an area with extremely small amount of rain has been calculated based on rainfall data of last 32 years going back to 1986. The calculations have been performed using the Time Series method and Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) method. In the first method, statistical regression analysis has been carried out whereas in the second method, the rain pattern is fitted with Fourier periodic analysis. The results of these two methods are averaged for better reliability. The rainfall data is further analyzed using rainfall spectrum analysis.
