STAR
STAtistical Regional model

Model Description:

 

STAR represents a new statistical method for regional simulations.

Model structure

Ist simulations are constrained only by the parameters of a linear

References

Simulated series are generated by resampling from segments of observation

and in space ant time.

Input Data: Daily meteorological parameters for any number of stations and years; trend of a selected meteorological parameter for a defined time period

Results: Future climate scenario with a defined number of realizations

Resolution: Temporal: day; spatial: any resolution possible

Operating system: Unix

Programming language: C++

M
odel run time: Dependent on the number of stations, realizations and scenario length
