1 The uncertainty in the local response amplitude can be estimated by the normalized response pattern RMS-error of each model relative to the normalized IPCC ensemble mean response
pattern:
with the T surf response of the individual Models, T i , and that of the IPCC ensemble mean, T
ensemble , and their respective global winter and summer means, and . The
normalized response pattern RMS-error of each model, εi, gives a measure of the relative uncertainty of the local response amplitudes, independent of the global mean response.
