What is a daily stochastic weather generator?

What is WeaGETS? Weather Generator École de Technologie Supérieure (WeaGETS) is a Matlab-based versatile stochastic daily weather generator (WeaGETS) for producing time series of unlimited length for daily precipitation at a specific weather station site, plus maximum and minimum temperatures. WeaGETS can be used in climate change studies as a downscaling tool by perturbing the parameters to account for expected changes in precipitation and temperature.

What is WeaGETS? First, second and third-order Markov models are provided to generate precipitation occurrence. Exponential and gamma distributions are available to produce daily precipitation quantity. Precipitation generating parameters have options to be smoothed using Fourier harmonics. A spectral correction approach is included to correct the well-known underestimation of monthly and inter-annual variability associated with weather generators.
