Abstract

This study investigated the factors that affect periodic rainfall and the potential for recurrent flood disasters in Padang City. This study applies analytical techniques to understand the characteristics of periodic rainfall data and their correlation with flood frequency events. Factors influencing periodic rainfall, such as weather standard map conditions and geographic patterns, were examined to provide insight into the relationship between periodic rainfall intensity and the frequency of flood events. The study applied descriptive analysis to summarize data on the characteristics of periodic rainfall, spatial analysis to evaluate the distribution of periodic rainfall, and correlation analysis was conducted to explore the relationship between independent and dependent variables related to periodic rainfall and flooding. These findings aim to contribute to disaster management and planning strategies in Padang City, as well as improve the city's resilience to flood events.
