Abstract

Su kaynaklarının kullanılması ve su yapılarının planlanması gibi pek çok konuda analizlerin sağlıklı bir biçimde yapılabilmesi için birçok parametrenin (yağış, akış, sızma, buharlaşma ve terleme v.s) doğru ve uzun süreli ölçümünün yapılabilmesi son derece önemlidir. Yağış verisi ise bu parametrelerin en önemlilerinden bir tanesidir. Geçmişe yönelik yağış verileri ile ilgili sağlıklı ve uzun süreli bilgi iyi bir analiz için büyük önem taşımaktadır. Geçmişe yönelik ölçümü bulunmayan istasyonların verileri aynı havza içerisinde bulunan ve hidrometeorolojik olarak benzer diğer istasyonların verileri ile tahmin edilebilmektedir. Elde edilen sonuçların güvenirliği açısından tahmin yönteminin doğru seçilmesi önemli olmaktadır. Bir istasyonda mevcut ölçüm verileri yardımıyla, geçmişe yönelik verilerin elde edilip edilemeyeceği veya gelecekte meydana gelebilecek veri eksikliklerinin giderilip giderilemeyeceği irdelenmelidir. Bu çalışmada Yapay Sinir Ağları (YSA) yöntemi kullanılarak yağış tahmini için bir model teklif edilmiştir. Bu yöntem, Amerika Birleşik Devletlerinin Portland bölgesinde bulunan 121, 120, 21 ve 107 nolu yağış gözlem istasyonlarında ölçülmüş günlük yağış verilerine uygulanmıştır. Modelleme, 2000 – 2009 yılları arasında her bir istasyondan alınan 3170 adet günlük yağış verisi için uygulanmıştır. Elde edilen sonuçlar literatürde mevcut olan ağırlıklı ve harmonik ortalama metotlarından elde edilen sonuçlar ile karşılaştırılmıştır.

Abstract

For the proper utilization of water resources and properly planned water structures to be built and conducted rightly, it is necessary that many parameters (precipitation, runoff, infiltration, evapotranspiration, etc.) and their influences should be analyzed and examined properly. Precipitation is one of the most important parameters in the hydrology field. The rainfall data is very important for the level of water resources conduct and running. While planning, recorded data has great importance. Data of the ungauged stations may be estimated with those of similar stations hydrometeorogically in the same/similar watershed. Method of forecast is very important from the view point of the reliability of results obtained. It must be investigated, in detail, whether the data in the past is obtained or the lacked data, would be in the future, is completed. In this study a model is proposed for estimating daily rainfall amount by using the artificial neural network (ANN) method. This method has been tested for the daily precipitation data obtained from the precipitation stations of 121, 120, 21 and 107 in Portland province of USA. Number of 3170 data in the years of 2000-2009 belonging to these stations, has been used in this model. Furthermore, this model formed is compared with the commonly used weighted average, and harmonic average methods.

For the proper utilization of water resources and properly planned water structures to be built and conducted rightly, it is necessary that many parameters (precipitation, runoff, infiltration, evapotranspiration, etc.) and their influences should be analyzed and examined properly. Precipitation is one of the most important parameters in the hydrology field. The rainfall data is very important for the level of water resources conduct and running. While planning, recorded data has great importance. Data of the ungauged stations may be estimated with those of similar stations hydrometeorogically in the same/similar watershed. Method of forecast is very important from the view point of the reliability of results obtained. It must be investigated, in detail, whether the data in the past is obtained or the lacked data, would be in the future, is completed. In this study a model is proposed for estimating daily rainfall amount by using the artificial neural network (ANN) method. This method has been tested for the daily precipitation data obtained from the precipitation stations of 121, 120, 21 and 107 in Portland province of USA.
