Repeatable in science refers to the ability to test the same hypothesis, using the same methods (typically by independent researchers), to confirm or reject said hypothesis, e.g. the repeated observation by many, many different researchers of fossils in the correct temporal and morphological relationships within the fossil record (no rabbits in the pre-Cambrian, no humans alongside dinosaurs, etc).

Some of them are optimal fingerprint detection studies (estimating the magnitude of fingerprints for different external forcing factors in observations, and determining how likely such patterns could have occurred in observations by chance, and how likely they could be confused with climate response to other influences, using a statistically optimal metric), some of them use simpler methods, such as comparisons between data and climate model simulations with and without greenhouse gas increases / anthropogenic forcing, and some are even based only on observations.

A series of sensitivity tests show that our detection results are robust to observational data coverage change, interpolation methods, influence of natural climate variability on observations, and different model sampling (see Supplementary Information).

Only through the process of stringing together such observations from different ships using different sampling methods are time - series obtained for individual 1X1 degree Marsden squares.

Structural uncertainty is attenuated when convergent results are obtained from a variety of different models using different methods, and also when results rely more on direct observations (data) rather than on calculations.

Most current statistical methods for detection and attribution rely on linear regression models where the observations are regressed onto expected response patterns to different external forcings.

These differences may be as much a function of different interpolation methods and station densities as they are of errors in observations or the result of sampling different time periods (Hulme and New, 1997; New, 1999).

To cover this vast amount of ground, it discusses, at a high level, subjects ranging from observations of various parts of the climate system and climate modelling to the limits of economic assessments, the different pathways of greenhouse gas emissions considered, adaptation response strategies and methods of mitigation that include everything from from taxing greenhouse gas emissions to removing carbon dioxide directly from the atmosphere.
