Local eigenvalue analysis of CMIP3 climate model errors
Of the two dozen or so global atmosphere ocean general circulation models (AOGCMs), many share parameterizations, components or numerical schemes, and several are developed by the same institutions. Thus it is natural to suspect that some of the AOGCMs have correlated error patterns. Here we present a local eigenvalue analysis for the AOGCM errors based on statistically quantified correlation m...

متن کاملIdentification of Linear Climate Models from the CMIP3 Multimodel Ensemble
In this paper, we investigate an ensemble of atmosphere–ocean general circulation models (AOGCMs) participating in phase 3 of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP3), and whose dynamic behavior is emulated by the reduced-complexity climate model MAGICC6. Using a superimposed impulse in solar radiative forcing for the purposes of system identification, we identify 12 AOGCMs in the CMIP...
متن کاملUnderstanding the CMIP3 multi-model ensemble
The CMIP3 multi-model ensemble has been widely utilised for climate research and prediction, but the properties and behavior of the ensemble are not yet fully understood. Here we present some investigations into various aspects of the ensemble’s behaviour, in particular focussing on the performance of the multi-model mean. We present an explanation of this phenomenon in the context of the stati...
متن کاملProcess-based analysis of climate model ENSO simulations: Intermodel consistency and compensating errors
Systematic and compensating errors can lead to degraded predictive skill in climate models. Such errors may be identified by comparing different models in an analysis of individual physical processes. We examine model simulations of El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) in five Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP) models, using transfer functions to analyze nine processes critical to ENSO...
