pysteps.downscaling

Implementation of deterministic and ensemble downscaling methods.

pysteps.downscaling.interface

Interface for the downscaling module. It returns a callable function for computing downscaling.

get_method(name)

Return a callable function for computing downscaling.

pysteps.downscaling.rainfarm

Implementation of the RainFARM stochastic downscaling method as described in [RFvHP06].

RainFARM is a downscaling algorithm for rainfall fields developed by Rebora et al. (2006). The method can represent the realistic small-scale variability of the downscaled precipitation field by means of Gaussian random fields.

downscale(precip, ds_factor[, alpha, ...])

Downscale a rainfall field by increasing its spatial resolution by a positive integer factor.
