| Abstract: |
The Second Songhua River Basin is located at the northern edge of the East Asian monsoonregion in China. The river basin has a large interannual rainfall-runoff variation often associated withfrequent droughts and floods. Therefore, the mid-long-term runoff prediction is of great significance.According to a review of the national and international literature, there are few studies on sunspots inthe prediction of medium- and long-term runoff. In this study, sunspots are selected as the influencingfactors of runoff based on the mechanism of astronomical factors; sensitivity analysis was used toidentify the time delay of sunspots’ influence on runoff and determine the prediction factor (relativenumber of sunspots in January and March). The BP (backpropagation) network is used to identifythe correlation between prediction factors and prediction items (monthly average inflow rate of theFengman Reservoir and the Baishan Reservoir in the flood season), and then the prediction model isconstructed. According to the test results of historical data and the actual forecast results, the forecastis working well, and the accuracy of qualitative forecasting is high. |
