Applications of the MVWG Multivariable Stochastic Weather Generator

Table 4

Differences in the crop model results obtained by using observed and generated weather data of the central points of the investigated polygons. The parameters for generating artificial weather data were obtained by spatial interpolation using the data of the border points. Asterisk denote significant differences (significance level, 𝛼 = 0.05).
