FIGURE 7 QQ pot of the RMSSE and the normal distribution values: (a) the
period of November 2018 – July 2019 (weak spatial dependence), (b) the
period of August 2019 - February 2020 (strong spatial dependence)
Cross-validation using correlation of coefficient and RMSE for each well
was done to observe the variance of each well during November 2018 –
July 2019 (weak spatial dependence), and August 2019 – February 2020
(strong spatial dependence) (Table 6). Most wells with strong spatial
dependence have a high correlation of coefficient (0.76 – 0.97). On the
other hand, most of the weak spatial dependence data have a relatively
low positive correlation of coefficient (0.37 – 0.98), and even
sometimes, it becomes negative like in well 13. The highest correlation
happens in well 4, well 7, and well 8 with a coefficient 0.98, 0.95, and
0.96, respectively. It indicates that during the weak spatial dependence
period, these three wells were influenced by the rainfall that occurred
in January 2019.
