Experimental NOAA/ESRL PSD and CIRES/CDC Forecast of Hawaiian Index in Global Tropics Domain
Predictions of Hawaiian Index SSTA (red solid line) and verification (blue solid line). Dashed lines indicate one standard deviation confidence intervals appropriate to the LIM forecast. Hawaii index was calculated in the 4x10 degrees latitudeXlongitude box, centered at lat=20N, lon=155W.

Time series of actual forecast errors normalized by one standard deviation of the expected forecast uncertainty given a perfect model. Blue line: Lead = 3 months. Red line: Lead = 6 months. Black line: Lead = 9 months. Yellow line: Lead = 12 months. Given the dynamical assumptions of the prediction model, forecast errors are Gaussian, and the horizontal lines indicate 95% confidence interval.
