## Abstract An important limitation of commonly used single‐site rainfall models is that they are not able to reflect spatial characteristics, while many impact studies demand the accommodation of spatial rainfall correlations. As a result, a number of stochastic models have been developed to produ

## Abstract The aim of this study is to model rainfall amounts on a daily basis by fitting a smooth curve to the mean rainfall __per__ rainy day. The rainfall amounts are described as gamma distributions with smoothing parameters. The smoothing technique used is the approach of the Fourier series.
