ALMEIDA MALDONADO, Enrique; HERNANDEZ VICTOR, Yoelkis; MARTIN ALFONSO, Juan Antonio  e  BROWN MANRIQUE, Oscar. Computer tool for water analysis of daily and extreme rainfall in river basins. RCCI [online]. 2022, vol.16, n.2, pp. 31-50.  Epub 01-Jun-2022. ISSN 2227-1899.

Precipitation is an important part of the hydrological cycle, favors life on the planet and constitutes the main entry of water into a basin; therefore, its study is essential to quantify water resources, flood forecasting, design of hydraulic works, erosion studies, among others. For the study of it there are dissimilar tools, each one with very specific functions, which make it difficult to carry out a comprehensive analysis, since they force the researcher to master a number of techniques and instruments to reach conclusions, generally partial ones. Additionally, given the large volume of data generated by the actual number of existing pluviometers in any water basin and the high frequency of observations, typically only the most representative are chosen, and from them, averages with weekly, monthly or annual frequency. For this reason, the objective of this research was the design and development of a computer tool for the comprehensive analysis of daily and extreme rainfall in hydrographic basins, with the ability to compute all the real data and complement each other, the results of the different techniques and strategies used today. This tool took the form of a web application, to allow researchers easy use and access without the need for additional installations. In addition, it is fed by official information from the National Meteorology Center and its network of rain gauges. It is expected to be used for both academic and practical purposes by the different entities that need descriptive and predictive analysis of rainfall.
