The benchmarking of RE statistics was an issue that was put into play in McIntyre and McKitrick 2005a, where we observed that you could get high RE statistics from pseudoproxies with autocorrelation coefficients mimicking the autocorrelation coefficients of actual proxies, rather than the very low - order AR1 coefficients assumed (without proof) by climate scientists.

MW observe that the climate science practice of assuming that the «proxies» are a «signal» plus low - order AR1 noise is not one that is supported by observed AR1 coefficients — see their Figure 4.

By scaling an ENSO proxy (NINO3.4 or CTI SST anomalies) and subtracting it from global surface temperatures, one assumes ENSO is only noise and, by makig that assumption, one fails to account for the residual effects of the ENSO procesBy scaling an ENSO proxy (NINO3.4 or CTI SST anomalies) and subtracting it from global surface temperatures, one assumes ENSO is only noise and, by makig that assumption, one fails to account for the residual effects of the ENSO procesby makig that assumption, one fails to account for the residual effects of the ENSO process.
