ارزیابی اهمیت گردشگری و آب و هوا در تقاضای آب مسکونی: تجزیه و تحلیل داده های پانل و مدل های غیر خطی مصرف آب ماهانه

The influence of both climatic and touristic drivers on the water demand is investigated through a correlation analysis, thus deconstructing the seasonal variability of the consumption, and the development of both linear and non-linear models. The results demonstrate the improvement allowed by non-linear over linear modelling and the value of the information embedded in both climatic (in particular temperature daily maxima and minima and number of rainy days) and touristic determinants as drivers for the water demand at sub-annual scale.
