If the claim is that the ensemble mean represents all models then the uncertainty in that ensemble mean needs to represent the uncertainty of all models, not the «average of the within -
model standard deviations over all the models» as McIntyre put it.
I mean you could define the uncertainty of an «ensemble mean» as the «average of the within -
model standard deviations over all the models», but comparing that with observed range wouldn't tell you anything about the proportion of models whose range of uncertainty falls outside the uncertainty of observations.
Good points all — but one wonders how you could even «define the uncertainty of an «ensemble mean» as the «average of the within -
model standard deviations over all the models»» in this case.

This should be done properly (and could be) but assuming the slight difference in period for the RAOBCORE v1.4 data or the selection of

My understanding is that GCMs are run several times with known forcings (as far as we can determine them) but random natural variability (e.g. ENSO), so the end result is an «ensemble» of
model runs characterised by mean,
standard deviation etc. rather than following precisely the year - to - year variations of global temperature.
