Abstract

This study established the estimation method of rainfall distribution for small catchment. The Kriging method was introduced to establish the spatial distribution model of rainfall depth, where the cross validation is executed to verify the theoretical semi-variogram model. A field experiment with an area of 3.33ha was executed for nearly three years in southern Taiwan, and obtained the rainfall depth data from 167 rainfall events of 12 rainfall stations. After the statistical analysis, we found that the Gaussian model is suitable to establish the theoretical semi-variogram of rainfall depth, so as to estimate the rainfall depth of ungauged region.
