Even when the representation of all included processes is decided the models include many parameters that are only weakly constrained by other data, meaning there is parametric uncertainty (2)(McWilliams, 2007; Betz, 2009a; Parker, 2010; Katzav, 2013).
One hundred samples from a 2,276 - member ensemble were selected to represent observational constraints on the model's parametric uncertainties.
