Abstract
Knowledge of temporal and spatial characteristics of rainfall in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia is still lacking and they are still considered important for more efficient management of the implemented urban water resources projects. In view of this, a study was conducted to characterise the historical rainfall phenomena (from 1982 to 1992). Statistical properties of annual, monthly, and minutes rainfall were derived. Spatial correlation fields for the annual and monthly rainfalls were studied. The results showed that the temporal and spatial characteristics of rainfall in this region were pronounced, even on the basis of two groups of monthly rainfall. Thus they give the basis for further understanding of rainfall processes in Kuala Lumpur region and, in general, in humid tropics.
