The probability distribution of hourly rainfall for Kelantan River basin

Flood is a natural disaster that caused by the climatological factors which is climate factors, rainfall distribution, winds movements and also the topography of the place. Kelantan River Basin (KRB) frequently affected by flooding events. The excessive rainfall is one of the main cause which can le...
