Cycle Identification of Annual Runoff Time Series Based on Holt-Winters Method
Aiming at the drawbacks of wavelet analysis method for cycle identification of annual runoff series,taking Wulong Station of Wujiang River for an example,this paper proposed a new method to identify the cycle of hydrological time series based on the Holt-Winters model inherent structure.By simulating the hydrological series,it can be seen that this method could determine the possibility of annual runoff series cycle appeared to achieve the purpose of cycle identification according to the fitting accuracy.In addition,the results are compared with that of wavelet analysis method.The results show that the Holt-Winters model well captured all the periodic components in the wavelet analysis method,and the model results was good enough to verify the proposed hypothesis,and it could determine that the original sequence has the main period of 5.6 years.
