ABSTRACT
Time series analysis and forecasting has become a major tool in
many applications in air pollution and environmental management fields. Among
the most effective approaches for analyzing time series data is the model
introduced by Box and Jenkins, ARIMA (Autoregressive
Integrated Moving Average). In this study we used Box-Jenkins methodology to
build ARIMA model for monthly ozone data taken from an
Automatic Air Quality Monitoring System in Kemaman station for the period from
1996 to 2007 with a total of 144 readings. Parametric seasonally adjusted ARIMA (0,1,1) (1,1,2)12 model was successfully
applied to predict the long-term trend of ozone concentration. The detection of
a steady statistical significant upward trend for ozone concentration in
Kemaman is quite alarming. This is likely due to sources of ozone precursors
related to industrial activities from nearby areas and the increase in road
traffic volume.
Keywords: ARIMA; seasonal variation; surface
ozone; time series analysis
ABSTRAK
Analisis siri masa dan model peramalan telah menjadi kaedah
utama di dalam banyak aplikasi bidang pencemaran udara dan pengurusan alam
sekitar. Antara kaedah paling efektif bagi menganalisis data siri masa adalah
model ARIMA yang diperkenalkan oleh Box dan Jenkins. Dalam
kajian ini, kami menggunakan metodologi Box dan Jenkins untuk membina model
data bulanan ozon yang diperoleh dari Sistem Pemantauan Kualiti Udara Otomatik
di stesen Kemaman dari 1996 hingga 2007 dengan jumlah 144 bacaan data. Model
berparameter ARIMA terlaras secara bermusim (0,1,1) (1,1,2)12 telah
berjaya diaplikasi bagi meramal arah aliran jangka panjang kepekatan ozon.
Pengesanan secara mantap tambahan berkesan arah aliran meningkat bagi kepekatan
ozon di Kemaman adalah agak membimbangkan. Ini berkemungkinan besar disebabkan
oleh pelopor-pelopor ozon yang berkaitan dengan aktiviti perindustrian di kawasan
berhampiran dan juga pertambahan jumlah lalu lintas jalan.
Kata kunci: Analisis siri masa; ARIMA;
