In view of the relationship between the variability of rainfall during each season
represented by PC1 of APRODITE's data and data of Thai meteorological department to SST anomalies.The correlation coefficient between them is shown in Table 1 and Table 2. The value is negative for all seasons, because a high SST anomaly gives a low rainfall anomaly, and a low SST anomaly gives a high rainfall anomaly. With both persist data for most negative relationships between MAM season with Niño 3.4 is -0.50329. Values estimated to be significant at p < 0.05 are bolded, those at p < 0.01 are also underlined by t-test.
The correlation between Niño SST index (red) and principal component time series of seasonal (green) shows figure 4 for each of the seasonal and the correlation coefficient between them is shown in table1. The value is negative for all seasons, because a high SST anomaly gives a low rainfall anomaly, and a low SST anomaly gives a high rainfall anomaly. With most negative relationships between MAM season with Niño 3.4 is -0.50329. Values estimated to be significant at p < 0.05 are bolded, those at p < 0.01 are also underlined by t-test.
, we perform lead-lag
correlation analysis to further investigate. The SST anomalies in the SA of the North Pacific
Ocean were averaged, and used them to determine the relationships with the variability of
rainfall over the Indochina. Whereas, the Nino3.4 area (5°N-5°S, 170°-120°W) representing
ENSO phenomenon (Trenberth and Stepaniak, 2001) was used to determine the lead-lag
correlations. The Fig. 5a shows the positive relation between the variability of rainfall over
the Indochina (PC1) and the SST anomalies over the SA in the Pacific Ocean. The positive
correlation means that the increasing (decreasing) of SST anomalies in that area related to
rising (reducing) of the rainfall variability magnitude indicating more (less) rainfall over the
Indochina. The significant correlations present six months before and after the winter season
that implies the warming SST anomalous over the SA of the Pacific Ocean triggers more
rainfall over the Indochina and after that the rainfall sends signal back to that area of the
Ocean
