    FLUCTUATION ANALYSIS OF MONTHLY RAINFALL TIME SERIES

    The monthly rainfall time series, spanning more than a century, recorded in several sites in the middle Argentina were analyzed. The power spetral density (PSD) method reveals the presence of annual and semi-annual cyclic fluctuations. The detrended fluctuation analysis (DFA) performed on the residual times series (after removing the periodicities) shows a scaling behavior, characterized by DFA scaling exponents ranging between 0.54 and 0.58. These findings could contribute to a better understanding of rainfall dynamics.
