Abstract

Weather has a significant impact on human activities, making accurate weather forecasting an important necessity. This study aims to analyze the patterns of climate element changes at the Pattimura Ambon Meteorological Station using the Markov Chain approach to identify climate transition patterns, estimate steady-state time, and predict the climate in 2025. Monthly secondary climate element data for the period 2015-2024 were obtained from the Maluku Province BPS, categorized into three conditions: cold (<25°C), normal (25°C-26.5°C), and hot (>26.5°C). The data were analyzed using the Markov Chain method with calculations of the transition probability matrix, matrix convergence, and steady-state distribution. The research results indicate that the system reaches equilibrium after 47 periods with a long-term distribution: cold condition 2.85%, normal 35.66%, and hot 61.76%. The hot condition has the highest stability with a probability of remaining in the same state at 91.8%. The 2025 prediction indicates that monthly temperature probabilities gradually move toward the steady-state distribution, illustrating the dominance and persistence of hot conditions in the long term. The analysis results provide important implications for agricultural planning, tourism, infrastructure, and disaster mitigation in the city of Ambon in the face of climate change.
