Short summary
The paper presents two weather generators, one that generates sequences of daily precipitation based on two key statistical parameters and another that generates sequences of daily temperature based on the mean and standard deviation. They enable the use of downscaled projections of precipitation and temperature statistics for impact studies, such as hydrological modelling.
