A turning bands method for simulating isotropic Gaussian random fields on the sphere

Xavier Emery, Reinhard Furrer and Emilio Porcu

Statistics & Probability Letters, 2019, vol. 144, issue C, 9-15

Abstract: We introduce a novel approach to simulate Gaussian random fields defined over spheres of R3. Through continuation we embed the process on the sphere in a nonstationary random field of R3 to use a turning bands method. We also discuss the approximation accuracy.
