Return two callable functions to initialize and generate 2d perturbations of precipitation or velocity fields.

Methods for precipitation fields:

Name

Description

parametric

this global generator uses parametric Fourier filtering (power-law model)

nonparametric

this global generator uses nonparametric Fourier filtering

ssft

this local generator uses the short-space Fourier filtering

nested

this local generator uses a nested Fourier filtering

Methods for velocity fields:

Name

Description

bps

The method described in [BPS06], where time-dependent velocity perturbations are sampled from the exponential distribution
