Simulation of potential evapotranspiration values based on vine copula

چکیده مقاله

copula had a great impact on the study and analysis of dependence structures in various sciences. In multivariate analyses with dimensions of more than two variables, it is associated with computational complexities that solve vine copulas and these problems. In this study, in order to provide an approach to simulate potential evapotranspiration based on meteorological parameters in Birjand meteorological station from different family copulas including Rvine, independent R-vine, Gaussian, independent Gaussian, C-vine, C-vine independent, D-vine and D-vine independent were used. In this regard, vine copula simulation and conditional density were used. In pair correlation analysis of the studied variables using Kendall's tau statistic, dependence structure confirmed the studied parameters. The results showed a minimum correlation of 0.32 and a maximum of 0.77. The results of Akaike's information criteria (AIC), Bayesian information criteria (BIC) and LogLike statistics in evaluating the performance of vine copula dependency structure introduced the C-vine copula as the superior copula for analysing the pair dependence of the studied variables. By introducing the superior dependency structure and internal copulas, the tree sequence of the pair of values under study was obtained. Pair of simulated values was performed using vine copula. Comparison of Kendall's tau values in both simulation and observation modes showed that Kendall's tau values were close to each other in both modes and were approximately similar. The simulation results of vine copula potential evapotranspiration values and precipitation, temperature and relative humidity values showed 92% efficiency. The efficiency of C-vine copula in dependence analysis and simulation of potential evapotranspiration (PET) values is very high, which shows the ability of vine family copulas in multivariate analysis
