The Markovian arrival process: A statistical model for daily precipitation amounts. Journal of Hydrology, 510, 459-471.0022-16941879-2707https://hdl.handle.net/11441/107817The Markovian arrival process (MAP) is a stochastic process that allows for modeling dependent and non-exponentially distributed observations. Due to its versatility, it has been widely applied in different contexts, from reliability to teletraffic. In this work we show the suitability of the MAP for modeling daily precipitation data, which are often characterized by a non-negligible correlation structure. Specifically, a set of daily precipitation amounts series from the region of Andalusia (Spain) is shown to be correctly fitted with a two-state MAP.application/pdf12 p.engAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 Internacionalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/Daily precipitation dataMarkovian arrival processHidden Markov modelsCorrelationMoment matching methodinfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess10.1016/j.jhydrol.2013.12.033
