Abstract
The rainfall data can be help to engineers to predict the events and models to decide in other engineering subject. Therefore, in this paper, the monthly rainfall data of six meteorological regions of TRNC as a whole for the hydrologic years from September 1975 to August 2014 period were gathered. In order to study these gathered monthly data’s statistically, other than the minimum required sample sizes for each region, the quality tests (consistency, normality, stationarity, and trend) were as well carried out based on parametric and non-parametric tests. To determine the most representative probability distribution function for each region, Normal distributions were used. The result show that Normality, Homogeneity, Consistency, Trend analysis, and Stationarity tests were used as quality test for each meteorological region and TRNC as a whole and found that they are all within the acceptable range.
