Water scarcity has emerged as a critical issue in Mexico, with water quality and management undergoing constant changes due to natural phenomena and human activities. Recent advancements in machine learning have demonstrated promising results in forecasting climatological and hydrological variables. This study employs a Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) recurrent neural network to correlate 52 years of historical rainfall and streamflow data from the Upper Basin of the Guayalejo-Tamesi River in Tamaulipas, Mexico, aiming to provide accurate flow forecasts through the rainfall historical data. The results show that LSTM produced a Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE) of 110.44. We acknowledge various factors like data cleaning processes such as imputation and outlier removal, the accuracy of historical data, and unconsidered climatological variables as potential influences on the network’s performance.

摘要

Water scarcity has emerged as a critical issue in Mexico, with water quality and management undergoing constant changes due to natural phenomena and human activities. Recent advancements in machine learning have demonstrated promising results in forecasting climatological and hydrological variables. This study employs a Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) recurrent neural network to correlate 52 years of historical rainfall and streamflow data from the Upper Basin of the Guayalejo-Tamesi River in Tamaulipas, Mexico, aiming to provide accurate flow forecasts through the rainfall historical data. The results show that LSTM produced a Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE) of 110.44. We acknowledge various factors like data cleaning processes such as imputation and outlier removal, the accuracy of historical data, and unconsidered climatological variables as potential influences on the network’s performance.
