abstract = "The prediction of the Negro River height at Manaus, Brasil, has
very important economical interests, mainly for the people living
in that region. This work is an attempt to find a model which
explains the heights of the Negro river. The Negro river height
data is checked for nonstationarities over the record length. The
produce used to find the model involves an adjustment of the
series by the seasonal means and standart deviations. Some models
were proposed and comparisons for predicting river heights for
one, two and three steps ahead were done. The chosen model was an
autoregressive model in which the coefficients vary with each
month. The seasonal autoregressive model is compared with other
suggested models in the literature.",
