Event-based rainfall analysis in Sinai, Egypt
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This study investigates event-based rainfall characteristics in Sinai (Egypt) using hourly precipitation data from the Global Satellite Mapping of Precipitation. A hierarchical cluster analysis of a 19-year dataset (2003-2021) identified five different regions in Sinai. Distinct storms were identified using a minimum inter-event time of 5 hours. The analysis of storm characteristics revealed that rainfall events in Sinai last from 1.7 to 3.6 hours, with a mean storm volume of 6.4 mm. Rainfall intensity ranges from 1.7 to 4 mm/hr, and the average dry period duration is 34 days. The northern region has the highest frequency of storms (25 events/year). The Weibull distribution was found to fit the best for all rainfall characteristics except for intensity, which was best represented by the Generalized Extreme Value distribution. This study provides valuable insights about rainfall events in Sinai that can be applied to improve flood mitigation strategies and water resources management.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; both teacher heads agree on what is shown here.
