Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The predictability o f the Pacific North American (PNA) pattern is evaluated on time scales from days to months using state-of-the-art dynamical multiple model ensembles including the Canadian Historical Forecast Project (HFP2) ensemble, the Development o f a European Multimodel Ensemble System for Seasonal-to-Interannual prediction (DEMETER) ensemble, and the Ensemble Based Predictions o f Climate Changes and their Impacts (ENSEMBLES).Some interesting findings in this study include (i) Multiple-model ensemble (MME) skill was better than skill from most o f the individual models; (ii) both actual prediction skill and potential predictability increased as the averaging time scale increased from days to months; (iii) There is no significant difference in actual skill between coupled and uncoupled models, in contrast with the potential predictability where coupled models performed better than uncoupled models; (iv) relative entropy (REA) is an effective measure in characterizing the potential predictability o f individual predictions, whereas the mutual information (MI) is a reliable indicator o f overall prediction skill; (v) Compared with conventional potential predictability measures o f the signal-to-noise ratio, the Mi-based measures characterized more potential predictability when the ensemble spread varied over initial conditions.It is also confirmed that from monthly to seasonal time scales, the potential predictability o f PNA is teleconnected with ENSO.The predictive skill on intra-seasonal time scales in the tropics is linked to Madden-Julian Oscillations (MJO).Using recently developed framework o f potential predictability, information-based and ensemble based predictability measures were explored on multiple time scales for MJO predictability.Results show that there is no significant difference in the vi

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
