Short summary
Due to the limited spatial and temporal coverage of observations, global models are essential tools to study climate. However, long-term climate data at fine spatial scale are difficult to obtain because of elevated computational costs such algorithms involve. This paper presents a simple model based on the description of climate/topography interactions to generate local precipitation fields at low cost. The objective is to provide a flexible and easy to use method for paleoclimate studies.
