      A spatiotemporal precipitation generator based on a censored latent Gaussian field 

      Baxevani, Anastassia; Lennartsson, J. (2015)
      A daily stochastic spatiotemporal precipitation generator that yields precipitation realizations that are quantitatively consistent is described. The methodology relies on a latent Gaussian field that drives both the ...
