Description :
The longest instrumental rainfall series have been investigated for the North Assam subdivision and 4 meteorological stations in Northeast India. Analysis of trends to annual and seasonal rainfall show these to be very stable, with no change in the rainfall over North Assam during the last 150 years. The Fourier analysis of fluctuations in rainfall series shows that the periodic signal of T = 3,5 year is the strongest one.
