Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Classification of Cropping Patterns Based on Regional Climate Classification Using Decision Tree ApproachTb Ai Munandar, SumiatiNowadays, agricultural field is experiencing problems related to climate change that result in the changing patterns in cropping season, especially for paddy and coarse grains, pulses roots and Tuber (CGPRT/Palawija) crops. The cropping patterns of rice and CGPRT crops highly depend on the availability of rainfall throughout the year. The changing and shifting of the rainy season result in the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 13, Issue 9 · 28 Sep 2017 · 8,246 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractClimate Projections of Future Extreme Events in MalaysiaA.H. Syafrina, M.D. Zalina, A. NorzaidaIn Malaysia, extreme rainfall events are often linked to a number of environmental disasters such as landslides, monsoonal and flash floods. In response to the negative impacts of such disaster, studies assessing the changes and projections of extreme rainfall are vital in order to gather climate change information for better management of hydrological processes. This study investigates the changes and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 3 · 21 Mar 2017 · 8,257 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractForecasting of Humidity of Some Selected Stations from the Northern Part of Bangladesh: An Application of SARIMA ModelMd. Moyazzem Hossain, Md. Atikur Rahman, Md. Zahirul Islam, Ajit Kumar MajumderCommunity risk from natural hazards and climate change depends largely on physical and climatic settings of an area, socio-economic condition of a community and the magnitude, duration and consecutiveness of the hazard or change itself. Impacts of climate change can be characterized by increasing temperatures, rainfall, humidity changes and climate related extreme events such as floods, cyclone, droughts, sea level … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 10 May 2016 · 8,619 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGAUSSIAN COPULA MARGINAL REGRESSION FOR MODELING EXTREME DATA WITH APPLICATIONSutikno, Heri Kuswanto, Iis Dewi RatihRegression is commonly used to determine the relationship between the response variable and the predictor variable, where the parameters are estimated by Ordinary Least Square (OLS). This method can be used with an assumption that residuals are normally distributed (0, σ2). However, the assumption of normality of the data is often violated due to extreme observations, which are often found … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 4 Apr 2014 · 7,625 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAPPLYING SEASONAL CLIMATE TRENDS TO AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTION IN TANJUNG KARANG, MALAYSIAMohd Ekhwan Toriman, Lee Qiao Yun, Mohd Khairul Amri Kamarudin et al.The North West Selangor Integrated Agriculture Development Agency (NWS-IADA) is the most productive agricultural part in Selangor, Malaysia. This is partly because of the inherent high fertility of the soils and the moderate variable climate. However, with increasing global concern about climate impacts, this article examines relative importance of climate influences on the paddy production rate over 28 years (1980-2008). … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 6 Jan 2014 · 7,917 accessesView PDFCite
