2.2 Analysis of Bago River Watershed Hydrological and Meteorological Parameters

Two non-parametric techniques were employed on the dataset cited above, in order to

extract oscillatory components as well as be able to reconstruct forecasted data from the

year 2003 to about 2016 (or around 13 years of forecasted data. The techniques included

the Blackman-Tukey (BT) Correlogram Analysis or Power Spectrum (PS) Technique

and Singular Spectrum Analysis (SSA).

2.2.1 Blackman-Tukey Correlogram Analysis

The correlogram constructs an estimate of the power spectrum using a windowed fast

Fourier transforms (FFT) of the autocorrelation function of the time series. It was

developed by Blackman and Tukey (1958) and is based on the Wiener-Khinchin theorem,

which states that if the Fourier transform of a series g(t) is G(w), and if the

autocorrelation function of the series is R, then the Fourier transform of R is |G(w)|2 or

the power spectrum of g (e.g., Press et al., 1989). The resulting power-spectrum estimate

is called a correlogram.

The correlogram is usually performed on weighted versions of the time series or

autocorrelation functions in order to reduce power leakage (artificially high power

estimates at frequencies away from the true peak frequencies). Press et al. (1989, pp. 423-

424) note that "when we select a run of N sampled points for periodogram spectral

estimation, we are in effect multiplying an infinite run of ... data ... by a window function

in time, one which is zero except during the total sampling time [NDt], and is unity

during that time." The sharp edges of this window function contain much power at

highest frequencies, which is imparted to the windowed signal and leads to power

leakage. A similar argument can be made for correlograms. Weighting the data or

correlation function by various tapered shapes (high in center and falling off to sides) is

an accepted traditional approach to reducing power leakage. In the Blackman-Tukey

approach, the power spectrum P(w) is estimated by

Page 7: Bago River Irrigation System Rehabilitation and Improvement Project (BRISRIP) Assignment Report Climate & Hydrological Forecasting

3

where rj is the autocorrelation function, M is the maximum lag considered and window

length, and wj is the windowing

There are various windows of the same widths give similar results. The more important

choice is how wide the windows should be. The averaging associated with windowing a

series reduces the resolution of the methods, from the frequency intervals of 1/N, to a

windowed frequency intervals of about 1/M (e.g., Kay 1988, p. 81). Thus, wider windows

yield higher spectral resolution, and vice versa.

However, there is a trade-off between higher resolution and increasing variance of the

spectral estimate. At the extreme, a single (M=N) direct application of FFT to an

unwindowed time series results in a periodogram with a theoretical standard deviation of

the estimates equal to the estimates at each frequency, regardless of the number of

observations in the time series (Press et al. 1989, p. 423). Averaging the results from

many short data windows throughout the series (or autocorrelation) effectively increases

the number of independent samples used in estimation and thereby reduces the estimation

variance. Kay (1988, section 4.5) shows that the variance of a power spectrum obtained

by a windowed correlogram is 2M/3N of the estimated power at each frequency. Thus a

narrower window should be used to smooth the spectrum and reduce the sampling errors

on the estimate. In practice, Kay (1988) recommends that windows should be no more

than one-fifth to one-tenth the total number of data points (to obtain desired estimate-

variance reductions) and not too much smaller (in order to retain the ability to distinguish

between powers at neighboring frequencies and to obtain the desired leakage reductions).

2.2.2. The Singular Spectrum Analysis (SSA) of a Time Series

In recent years a powerful technique of time series analysis has been developed and

applied to many practical problems. This technique is based on the use of the Singular-

value decomposition of the so-called trajectory matrix obtained from the initial time

series by the method of delays. It is aimed at an expansion of the original time series f(t)

into a sum of a small number of 'independent' and 'interpretable' components:

f(t) = f'(t) + f''(t)+... + u(t) (*)

where the time series f'(t),f''(t)... are 'independent' and 'interpretable' and u(t) stands for a

random noise. The expansion (*) can be used for different purposes, for instance, for

extracting trend, seasonalities and other harmonic components, for separating

deterministic and random components, for interpolating and forecasting.

3.0. Forecasted Data and Analyses

3.1 Forecasted Mean Monthly Discharge (Years 2003-2016)

The Forecasted Mean Monthly Discharge for the years 2003-2016 based on the Estimated

Bago River Discharge indicate an increasing trend for the thirteen-year forecasted data

(see Figure 1.2).

This increase in the River Discharge may be attributed to the decreasing forest cover

in the watershed leading to a lessened water holding capacity by the watershed itself.

This finding corroborates earlier assumptions made by Sakanashi ( 2003) whereby it had

been cited that according to the Negros Forests and Ecological Foundation Inc.

(NFEFI), the forest area of the watershed has been estimated at 6% in 1984 and 4% in

1992.

The increasing discharge of the Bago River is also corroborated by the interviews made

with Mr. Wilson Ciocon, the flood gatekeeper of NIA. Mr. Ciocon observed that the

flash floods that occurred most especially during rainy seasons have increasingly

subsided faster comparing these with subsidence rates twenty years ago. It had been

observed that twenty years ago, flash floods have longer retention times as long as 5

to 6 hours. Recent flash flood events have been observed to have retention times of only

1 to 2 hours at the most, according to Mr. Ciocon. By 2016, the forecasted mean monthly

discharge is estimated at 175,115 liters per second during the June-July 2016 rainy season

episode.

3.2. Forecasted Mean Monthly Intake Discharge Data (Years 2003-2016)

Based on the simulations made from the years 1990 to 2002, there will be constant

volume rate (liters per second) of intake water at the Head Gate station at the diversion

dam. The forecasted volume rate for the rainy seasons for the years 2003 to 2016 will

Page 10: Bago River Irrigation System Rehabilitation and Improvement Project (BRISRIP) Assignment Report Climate & Hydrological Forecasting

6

remain relatively constant rates based on the simulated/forecasted data in the range and

on a monthly average of 18,300 liters per second.

The simulated dry season intake discharge data, on the other hand, indicates that there is

a tapering/narrowing of values (please see Figure 1.4), increasing in rates from 2003 to

2016. As such, it expected that there will be more and more intake discharge at the head

gate station diversion dam during dry months in the coming years. This behavior of the

intake discharge should be taken in to consideration since, there is expectedly, more and

more water that will be available for irrigation purposes during dry months if this trend

will continue. This simulated behavior of intake discharge during dry months may indeed

be consistent with the previous finding of an increasing trend in the overall water

discharge rates, as well as forecasted increasing rainfall over the area (based on Table

1.3 and Figure 1.6) out of the Bago River and complicated by that the watershed’s water

holding capacity may be diminishing through time.

3.3. Forecasted Mean Monthly Rainfall Data (Years 2003-2016)

Data from the La Carlota Agromet Research Center of the Philippine Atmospheric

Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) was analyzed using

Singular Spectrum Analysis (SSA) Technique. From the Figure 1.6 and based on

simulated/forecasted data, it can quite easily be interpreted that there are increasing

amounts of rainfall over the area of the Bago Watershed. Hence, expectedly, there will

be increasing amounts of available water for absorption by the Bago watershed and

release through run-off by the Bago River.

This increasing trend in the simulated rainfall data is prominent in both rainy and dry

season forecasted data. The average monthly rainfall during the peak of the rainy

season will have increased from approximately 16.7 millimeters in 2006 to 22.3

millimeters by 2016, an increase of around 25% in the amount of rainfall in just ten

years. Likewise, the average monthly rainfall during the peak of the dry season will

have increased from approximately 5.6 millimeters in 2006 to 13.0 millimeters in 2016,

an increase of around 57% in just ten years.

The observed trend of increasing rainfall also corroborates and is consistent with the

earlier two findings of the present study of increasing mean monthly river discharge

(Figure 1.2) and intake discharge (Figure 1.4) of the Bago River.

3.4. Forecasted Mean Monthly Evaporation (2003-2016)

Data from the La Carlota Agromet Research Center of the Philippine Atmospheric

Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) was analyzed using

Singular Spectrum Analysis (SSA) Technique.

Based on the simulations made from the years 1994 to 2002, there is a decreasing trend

in the overall evaporation rates over the Bago watershed.

The simulated wet and dry season monthly average evaporation values, indicate that there

is a tapering/narrowing of values (please see Figure 1.8), decreasing in amounts from

Page 12: Bago River Irrigation System Rehabilitation and Improvement Project (BRISRIP) Assignment Report Climate & Hydrological Forecasting

8

2003 to 2016. As such, it expected that there will be less and less evaporation rates over

the watershed area during wet and dry seasons in the coming years.

This simulated behavior of decreasing evaporation over the Bago watershed area in both

dry months and wet months may indeed be consistent with the previous finding of the

increasing trend in the overall water discharge rates, providing less water to be

evaporated/ transpirated out from the forested watershed area itself, since less water is

available for sippage /perculation into the forest root system, as well as the diminishing

watershed’s water holding capacity due to the diminishing forest cover (which

transpirates/evaporates water from their canopies) in the watershed.

This decreasing trend in the simulated monthly evaporation data is prominent in both

rainy and dry season forecasted data. The average monthly evaporation during the peak

of the rainy season will have decreased from 3.6 millimeters in 2006 to 2.5

millimeters by 2016, an decrease of around 31% in the amount of evaporated water in

just ten years. Likewise, the average monthly evaporation during the peak of the dry

season will have decreased from approximately 2.8 millimeters in 2006 to 2.3

millimeters in 2016, a decrease of around 18% in just ten years.

3.5. Forecasted Annual Mean Dry Season Rainfall

3.5.1. Forecasted Data

The forecasted annual mean dry season rainfall expectedly conforms with the earlier

forecasted results of the mean monthly rainfall data. Figure 1.9 shows an apparent 5-year

cycle (oscillatory component) in the amount of rainfall. Based on the graph, it can be

assumed that there will be excessive amounts of rainfall that will have occurred in the

years 2005, 2010 and 2015 (above normal dry season rainfall years). Lowest rainfall

events (below normal dry rainfall season years or dry spell/drought years) during

the dry season will have occurred during the years 2002, 2007 (now forecasted and

experienced to be an El Niño Year) and 2012. If this 5-year cycle would ensue further, it

can be assumed that 2017 may possibly experience drought. The rest of the other years

could be surmised as normal dry season rainfall years.

3.5.2. Oscillatory Events

The annual mean dry season rainfall data from 1976-2002 was also analyzed using the

Blackman-Tukey (BT) Correlogram Analyses or Power Spectrum (PS) Technique.

Figure 1.12 is a representation of the same data in the frequency domain. Figure 1.12

corroborates the earlier finding above, about the 5-year oscillatory behavior in the

annual mean dry season rainfall data. Highest data variability occurs at periods of 5-

years, hence the peak power spectra occurring at a 5-year period in the graph. Extreme

events such as extreme dry spells and above-normal dry season rainfall occur with

repeat periods of five years, as earlier cited in the text.

3.6. Forecasted Annual Mean Wet Season Rainfall (2003-2016)

3.6.1. Forecasted Data

There is an overall increasing trend over the thirteen year period (2003-2016). However

this increase in the annual mean wet season is seen to be gradual. The increasing annual

mean wet and dry season rainfall are consistent with previous results conveyed in this

study. However, there is a prominent peak in the year 2013 which may indicate

extreme annual mean wet season rainfall for that particular year (Figure 1.10,

approximately 2209 millimeters). Hence, it might be expected that there could be

excessive river runoff during the 2013 wet season, and therefore flooding may be

expected.

3.6.2. Oscillatory Components

The annual mean wet season rainfall data from 1976-2002 was also analyzed using the

Power Spectrum Technique. Figure 1.13 is a representation of the same data in the

frequency domain. Figure 1.13 indicates two peaks in data variability, one with a

2.75-year cycle and another peak of around 7-year cycle in the annual mean wet season

rainfall data. These behaviors in the annual mean wet season data is consistent with

the El Niño-Southern Oscillation phenomenon (ENSO). Expectedly, extreme rainfall

events such as extreme wet spells and above-normal wet season rainfall should occur

with repeat periods of 2.75 and 7 years.
