The basic idea is to estimate the
trend component, by smoothing the data or by fitting a regression
model, and then estimate the seasonal component, by
averaging the de-trended seasonal data points (e.g., the December seasonal effect comes from the data points for all Decembers in the series).
Simon # 339, the past

models showed insignificant
trends in the region in which Pam developed, and the rest showed positive
trends averaging around 0.5 m / s per decade, considerably less than the observed
trend over the last 30 years.
We can derive the underlying
trend related to external forcings from the GCMs — for each
model, the underlying
trend can be derived from the ensemble mean (
averaging over the different phases of ENSO in each simulation), and looking at the spread in the ensemble mean
trend across
models gives information about the uncertainties in the
model response (the «structural» uncertainty) and also about the forcing uncertainty — since
models will (in practice) have slightly different realisations of the (uncertain) net forcing (principally related to aerosols).
These differences between projected and observed
trends in rainfall seem to raise serious questions about the ability of the
models to predict changes in rainfall — though Iâ $ ™ d be interested in CSIRO views, especially on whether it is appropriate to use successive 11 - year
averages as measures of outcome and, if it is not, how the relationship between projections and outcome should be monitored.

A realistic test of a climate
model would be to initialize it to conditions around 1850 - 1880 (which would mean making multiple runs with random starting data) and see if the
average model outputs follow the measured
trend from 1900 onwards.
So it seems to me that the simple way of communicating a complex problem has led to several fallacies becoming fixed in the discussions of the real problem; (1) the Earth is a black body, (2) with no materials either surrounding the systems or in the systems, (3) in radiative energy transport equilibrium, (4) response is chaotic solely based on extremely rough appeal to temporal - based chaotic response, (5) but at the same time exhibits
trends, (6) but at the same time
averages of chaotic response are not chaotic, (7) the mathematical
model is a boundary value problem yet it is solved in the time domain, (8) absolutely all that matters is the incoming radiative energy at the TOA and the outgoing radiative energy at the Earth's surface, (9) all the physical phenomena and processes that are occurring between the TOA and the surface along with all the materials within the subsystems can be ignored, (10) including all other activities of human kind save for our contributions of CO2 to the atmosphere, (11) neglecting to mention that if these were true there would be no problem yet we continue to expend time and money working on the problem.
Tom, If you accept that the pauses, previously occurring and the one at the present, are part of long period cycles whose long term
average is related to the actual long term
trend of temperature (rather than the far steeper slope of rise from just 1980 to 1999), you are admitting that the rise (from whatever cause) has a slope of closer to 0.4 C per century than the super inflated values of 2C to 6C per century claimed by the
models and supporters of CAGW.
Christy is correct to note that the
model average warming
trend (0.23 °C / decade for 1978 - 2011) is a bit higher than observations (0.17 °C / decade over the same timeframe), but that is because over the past decade virtually every natural influence on global temperatures has acted in the cooling direction (i.e. an extended solar minimum, rising aerosols emissions, and increased heat storage in the deep oceans).
The
model used for the study, the NCAR - based Community Climate System Model, correctly captured the trend toward warmer average temperatures and the greater warming in the West, but overstated the ratio of record highs to record lows in recent y

As you can see, over periods of a few decades,
modeled internal variability does not cause surface temperatures to change by more than 0.3 °C, and over longer periods, such as the entire 20th Century, its transient warming and cooling influences tend to
average out, and internal variability does not cause long - term temperature
trends.
Given the considerable technical challenges involved in adjusting satellite - based estimates of TLT changes for inhomogeneities [Mears et al., 2006, 2011b], a residual cool bias in the observations can not be ruled out, and may also contribute to the offset between the
model and observed
average TLT
trends.»
Climate
models are what happens when you calculate changes over a long enough period of time for the fluctuations in weather to
average out so that you can see the underlying
trend.
«Here, it is sufficient to note that many of the 20CEN / A1B simulations neglect negative forcings arising from stratospheric ozone depletion, volcanic dust, and indirect aerosol effects on clouds... It is likely that omission of these negative forcings contributes to the positive bias in the
model average TLT
trends in Figure 6F.
Or maybe, «As shown in Figures 1.4 and 1.5, since the end of the 1992 Pinatubo volcano,
models have predicted a steady upward
trend in global
average temperatures, but the observed series have been comparatively trendless, and thus the range of
model warming predictions since the early 1990s can be seen to have been biased towards more warming than was subsequently observed.»
Instead of plotting individual year datapoints for observed temperatures, plotted 3 - year (36 - month
averages ending in December): this reflects an expectation that
models can't predict accurately every annual period, but over longer 3 - year periods the
model and observation
trends should better match.
Despite all the ludicrous adjustment machinations this newest NOAA revision relies on, the per century global warming
trend fabricated (for the 1998 to 2012 period) remains well below even the IPCC's
average climate

Also included in the figure (black circles) is the
average trend in surface temperatures produced by a collection of climate
models for the same intervals.
The current version of the figure gives the impression that the IPCC expected temperature to warm continuously year on year, which of course was not the expectation — the projections shown here are just the long - term
trend either from
averaging the GCMs or using simple climate
models.
So it shouldn't be used to rule out whether or not a particular observed value is consistent with
model expectations, but does give you some guidance as to just how far from the
average model expectation the current
trend lies (a cherry picker is not usually worried about the finer details of the former, but, instead, the coarser picture presented by the latter).
For example, for the period 1951 — 2014 (the leftmost points in the chart, representing a

Unless these nine
models share common systematic biases, it is thus expected that the

trend line (5.1 million km ²), a situation similar to 2013.
The widespread
trend of increasing heavy downpours is expected to continue, with precipitation becoming less frequent but more intense.13, 14,15,16 The patterns of the projected changes of precipitation do not contain the spatial details that characterize observed precipitation, especially in mountainous terrain, because the projections are
averages from multiple
models and because the effective resolution of global climate
models is roughly 100 - 200 miles.

averaged their
trends over the same period.
And that this is reflected in individual
model runs but as the timing of events such as El Nino / La Nina, volcanic eruptions etc. is unpredictable when projections are made based on ensemble runs then they will tend to
average out and the projection will show a fairly steady
trend.
Then an
average sensitivity based on the latitudinal
trends being 1.48 C per doubling might be some indication of future response to CO2, which appears to be somewhat less than 0.2 C per, though still within the confidence interval of the
model predictions, just closer to scenario C.

In short, the global climate
models used in the IPCC reports have been very good at predicting the underlying human - caused global surface warming
trend, beneath the short - term noise which will
average out to zero over time.
