Abstract

In this work we study three long series of daily rainfall measured in North-Western Italy. We analyze the global statistical properties of the three data sets and we discuss both the seasonal distribution of rainfall intensity and the long-term variation in rainfall properties. We show that the three series display a vanishingly small autocorrelation for periods longer than one or two days, consistent with the absence of multifractality in these records. These time series are largely consistent with the output of a simple chain-dependent stochastic process.
