AI-GEOSTATS: Generating skewed distributions

I am interested in comparing different estimators of spatial means. Any suggestions or approaches on how to generate a 2-D, autocorrelated, skewed distribution that exhibits non-stationary mean and variance? Thanks in advance for your ideas. ** Wil

Yes. Generate a Gaussian random field, add a deterministic trend surface, and take the exponent or a power transform of the sum. -- Edzer William Thayer wrote: > > I am interested in comparing different estimators of spatial means. Any > suggestions or approaches on how to generate a 2-D, auto
