There are a wide range of hypotheses about the dominant controls and
key parameter values governing land carbon storage, and a parallel range of ways in which these hypotheses are implemented in the codes of land models.
The new model provides quantitative assessments of the probability of an outbreak and the potential numbers of human victims when
key parameter values can be specified.

The
key value involved in this scenario is the ratio between dark energy's pressure and density, what is called its equation of state
parameter.
Rather, they tested a range of potential
values for
key parameters of their model and retained those consistent with the paleo - sea level estimates, but they did not explore the full space of possible
values within their ranges.
The code shows the specific
values used for the
key parameters such as degrees of freedom for estimates of likelihood statistics.
Since we very plainly stated the official
values of all
key parameters and explained the fact of and reasons for any departures we had made from those official
values in our own determination of climate sensitivity, the entire process was fully transparent, allowing any reader of our paper to substitute his or her own choice of
parameter values for ours.
Rather than concentrating on ignorant mistakes made in prior work, it would help to identify the
key parameters in those studies and justify a priori what the
value of those should be
Rather, they tested a range of potential
values for
key parameters of their model and retained those consistent with the paleo - sea level estimates, but they did not explore the full space of possible
values within their ranges.
