If the ''Single Array'' option is selected the array for the parameter will be defined as the starting/mean value multiplied by the multiplication array for all cells associated with the parameter. Multiplier arrays are not available for parameters that use pilot points. | If the ''Single Array'' option is selected the array for the parameter will be defined as the starting/mean value multiplied by the multiplication array for all cells associated with the parameter.

The ''Multiple Array'' option for user-defined multiplier arrays can be used in combination with the new [[GMS:Gaussian Field Generator|Gaussian Field Generator]] to perform a Monte Carlo simulation. This is accomplished by first generating a set of Gaussian fields using the FIELDGEN code and then associating the resulting folder of datasets with a parameter as described above. A stochastic simulation can then be performed using the Parameter Randomization method. For each model instance, GMS loads a new instance of the multiplier array into the model input. A default parameter value of 1.0 is generally recommended in such instances. | The ''Multiple Array'' option for user-defined multiplier arrays can be used in combination with the new [[GMS:Gaussian Field Generator|Gaussian Field Generator]] to perform a Monte Carlo simulation.
