Spatial Modeling of Summer Precipitation over the Czech Republic Using Physiographic Variables

This study aims to develop the spatial model of summer precipitation over the C zech R epublic using auxiliary geographical variables in order to produce gridded data needed for various applications. Accordingly, the most significant geographical variables are used to model spatial patterns of summer precipitation during the period 1971–2003. They are related to latitude; longitude; slope aspects of the neighbourhood grids westward and northward...
