Assessment variability of annual daily maximum rainfall of Johor, Malaysia

Floods generally occur in the main settlements in Johor. Flood happened in Johor generally is characterised by the yearly alternation of Southwest and Northeast monsoons. Floods have caused roads and connection between towns cut off. This problem makes it harder for emergency teams to deliver aids q...
