Long term rainfall forecast modelling for South Australia using large scale climate predictors

The work deals with long term rainfall forecasting of South Australia with the associations of different oceanic-atmospheric climate predictors. The novelty lies in the fact that rainfall forecasting is essential for the management of water resources because enhanced knowledge of expected rainfalls and subsequent flooding/drought can significantly reduce the impacts of such events. Moreover, outputs were deterministic that explore with quantitative values which opposed the traditional probabilistic forecast. Results permitted a deep understanding of future water demand to ensure proper water supplies to the society/people. As such, this research would be beneficial for weather forecasting agency all over the world.
