I was thinking about weather prediction.
Now climate is changing you see that all the models are becoming less and less acurate.
So yeah some models might be performing better but overall they are all performing worse.
- nl 8y agoNow climate is changing you see that all the models are becoming less and less acurate. That's not true. "Last year, the National Weather Service 5-day forecasts were within 4 degrees of the high temperature. That's as accurate as 2005's 3-day forecasts and a full degree better than the 5-day forecasts of 11 years ago"[1] [1] http://www.mcall.com/business/tech/mc-weather-forecasts-improvement-20170602-story.html http://www.mcall.com/business/tech/mc-weather-forecasts-impr... https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/capital-weather-gang/wp/2017/02/03/the-amazing-improvements-in-winter-weather-forecasting-since-the-1970s/ https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/capital-weather-gang/wp/...
- tephra 8y agoHave there been any research into the decline of weather prediction models? Sounds really interesting.
- starpilot 8y agoWeather models are constantly being validated and improved. They are getting better as computation power and grid resolution have increased. The climate is changing but the laws of physics are not. Also, climate is different from weather.
- ataturk 8y agoYes, like "gender" climate is fungible and able to be described in whatever politically expedient manner is most advantageous.
- wisty 8y agoWeather prediction is constantly getting more accurate. And since it only really cares about what happens in 7 (now maybe 10) days climate change is simply not a factor.
