Abstract
Historically, the high computational expense of performing lengthy climate simulations has limited the number of possible realizations. Here, we exploit the computational advantage of a recently developed parallel atmospheric general circulation model (AGCM) to determine the number of realizations required to calculate the model's statistics to a specified degree of certainty. Using standard statistical analysis techniques, this minimum ensemble size is found to be highly dependent on which output field is under examination. A strong dependence on location, season and averaging is also revealed.
