Mixed log series geometric distribution for sequences of dry days

Abstract

The development of rainfall occurrence models is continuously being explored by a number of researchers in the field since the 20th century. In order to further enhance the development of rainfall occurrence modeling, this present study is aimed to propose a new probability model which is able to describe the daily series of rainfall occurrence, particularly on the duration of consecutive dry or wet days in Peninsular Malaysia.
