A reexamination of methods for evaluating the predictability of the atmosphere

Pioneering work by Lorenz (1965, 1968, 1969) developed a number of methods for exploring the limits of predictability of the atmosphere. One method uses an integration of a realistic numerical model as a surrogate for the atmosphere. The evolution of small perturbations to the integration are used t...
