Decadal hindcast simulations of Arctic Ocean sea ice thickness made by a modern dynamic - thermodynamic sea ice model and forced independently by both the ERA - 40 and NCEP / NCAR reanalysis data sets are compared for the first time. (realclimate.org)
Finally, making another key technical point, the Research Report argues against the use of reanalysis data in structural analysis since its use makes mathematically rigorous hypothesis testing virtually impossible. (carlineconomics.com)
Another interesting analyses concerning monthly SST anomalies in the tropical Atlantic extracted from reanalysis data from the Hadley Climate Model show a slight negative SST anomaly trend -LRB--0.01 to -0.06 C)(mean average 1950 - 2004). (realclimate.org)
