| Zusammenfassung |
| We analyze distributions of rain-event sizes, rain-event durations, and
dry-spell durations for data obtained from a network of 20 rain gauges
scattered in a region of the northwestern Mediterranean coast. While power-law
distributions model the dry-spell durations with a common exponent 1.50 ±
0.05, density analysis is inconclusive for event sizes and event durations,
due to finite size effects. However, we present alternative evidence of the
existence of scale invariance in these distributions
by means of different data collapses of the distributions.
These results demonstrate that scaling properties of rain events and dry
spells can also be observed for medium-resolution rain data. |
