Empirical models and decadal forecasts
I noticed Anthony Watts and Judith Curry getting quite excited by a new paper from Emma Suckling and Leonard Smith called An Evaluation of Decadal Probability Forecasts from State-of-the-Art Climate Models. The paper was basically a comparison of an ensemble … Continue reading

Tests of a climate forecast
Thanks to a comment by Rachel, I’ve been made aware of a recent paper by Myles Allen called Tests of a decadal climate forecast. The paper is actually a short comment to the Editor and presents a comparison of the … Continue reading
Sympathy for the climate models?
