The observational climatology <X> is taken from the 1971-2000 mean in the ERA40 and interpolated into the model Gaussian T85 grid with triangular truncation at wave 85. The Dt is the model drift estimated from the difference between ensemble mean predictions (6 members) and the assimilations (2 members) averaged over 41 cases (from 1961 to 2001 by every year) as described in Chikamoto et al., (2011): Dt = SUM(Yjt) - SUM(Zt), where Zt is the assimilation corresponding to the time t.
