摘要
The value of weather generators for down-scaling the output of general circulation models for regional impact assessments is limited by the assumption of stationary-rainfall-circulation-pattern relationships. This note assesses the potential of incorporating weather front data into existing stochastic precipitation models to describe intraweather pattern rainfall variability.
