Abstract

This research uses the multilayer perceptron (MLP) model to predict Daily evaporation at two synoptic stations located in Rasht and Manjil, Guilan province, in north-west of Iran. Initially the most important combinations of climatic parameters for both of the stations were identified using the Gamma test; and Daily evaporation were modeled based on the obtained optimal combination. The results of the Artificial neural network-Gamma test (ANN-GT) model are evaluated using the root mean square errors (RMSE), correlation coefficient and Nash-Sutcliffe (NS) criteria. The results showed that the ANN-GT model for Rasht station with a correlation coefficient 0. 86, root mean square error 0. 95 and Nash-Sutcliffe criteria 0. 74 and for Manjil station with correlation coefficient 0. 94, root mean square error1. 58 and Nash-Sutcliffe criteria 0. 89 has an acceptable performance in predicting Daily evaporation. To evaluate the Uncertainty, we considered a percentage of data which were included in 95 percent of Uncertainty (p-factor) and the average width of the 95ppu band (d-factor). Regarding the Uncertainty results, the average with of 95PPU bound were obtained as 0. 33 and 0. 3 for the Manjil and Rasht stations, respectively. This shows the low Uncertainty level of the ANN-GT model for predicting Daily evaporation at both of the stations. Furthermore, the percentage of the observed data at 95PPU band was low and equal to %25 and %45 for the Rasht and Manjil stations, respectively. The reason for these low values can be due to low Uncertainty in the parameters.
