متن کاملConfronting Models with Data
APRIL 2003 AMERICAN METEOROLOGICAL SOCIETY | T he use of data to evaluate models is fundamental to science. Ideally, evaluations can be controlled and optimized in the laboratory; in most cases, however, atmospheric scientists have to perform model–data intercomparisons by taking advantage of the uncontrolled opportunities that nature provides. A model-evaluation project is complicated in at le...

متن کاملConfronting Intractability via Parameters

Almost no computational tasks in real life are specified by their size alone. It is not hard to imagine that some parameters contribute more intractability than others and it seems reasonable to develop a t...
