Abstract

Based on a sample of 11 observed Januaries, a 95% probability region for the hemispheric 500 mb topography was estimated in order to see whether a 75 d sequence of model-generated fields (starting from realistic initial conditions) shows the tendency to move away from climate with time or not. It turns out that such a tendency does not exist, but 20% of the simulated states lie outside the 95% probability region, indicating that sometimes significantly unrealistic states are simulated.DOI: 10.1111/j.2153-3490.1982.tb01795.x
