DOI: 10.1007/s00382-017-3772-0
Abstract: In this study two complementary approaches have been combined to estimate the reliability of the data-driven seasonal predictability of the meteorological summer mean temperature ($$T_{JJA}$$TJJA) over Europe. The developed model is based on linear regressions… read more here.
