Abstract
Identification of homogeneous rainfall regime in Limbang River Basin (LRB), Malaysia, Northern Borneo and its temporal characteristics were elucidated in the present study. Multivariate statistical techniques were used to characterize 15 years (2000-2015) monthly rainfall data from twelve rain gauging stations present in LRB. Analysis of monthly accumulated rainfall indicates that LRB receives maximum rainfalls during January, April, November, December and least in July.
