Validation of the model ClimaBR in relation to the number of wet days and to daily total precipitation

This study was accomplished with the objective of validate the ClimaBR model in what refers to generate synthetic series of total daily rainfall in different Brazilian places. For that, synthetic series of rainfall were generated for 12 places, chosen in a distributed way, so that all the different homogeneous rainfall Brazilian's regions were observed. Starting from the pluviometric series, available in the meteorological stations from selected places, the ClimaBR was used to generate the synthetic series of rainfall; it was generated 100-year-old series to each place. The results quality was analyzed comparing the adjustment among the observed values and the generated values by ClimaBR, through simple lineal regression and of other statistical indicators. The results obtained allow affirming that, in agreement with the conditions considered in the present study, the software ClimaBR presented good acting to generate of synthetic series of precipitation (number of wet days and daily total rainfall) for all of the tested places.
