This function generates realisations from the Gaussian and Student copula with unit Frechet margins.

1 2	rcopula(n, coord, copula = "gaussian", cov.mod = "whitmat", grid = FALSE, control = list(), nugget = 0, range = 1, smooth = 1, DoF = 1)

`n`	Integer. The number of observations.
`coord`	A vector or matrix that gives the coordinates of each location. Each row corresponds to one location - if any
`copula`	A character string that specifies the copula to be used, i.e., "gaussian" or "student".
`cov.mod`	A character string that gives the correlation function family to be used. This must be one of "whitmat", "cauchy", "powexp" and "bessel" for the Whittle-Matern, the cauchy, the powered exponential and the bessel correlation functions.
`grid`	Logical. Does the coordinates represent grid points?
`control`	A named list that control the simulation of the gaussian process — see `rgp`.
`nugget, range, smooth, DoF`	Numerics. The parameters of the copula.

A matrix containing observations from the required max-stable model. Each column represents one stations. If grid = TRUE, the function returns an array of dimension nrow(coord) x nrow(coord) x n.
