“Sea surface temperature is the one that consistently comes up. What we found is that all the variables have an effect, but those tend to be on a storm-by- storm basis and not over a longer period.”
Judith Curry
“[One important new feature is derived variables, which enable engineers to calculate and plot new variables from existing data for wells, groups, or other entities.] Often the variables they need to plot are not in their dataset, ... The simulators output a set variables, but they may need to plot a variable that is a function of that set. This new functionality gives them the flexibility to create the plots that are important to them in making their decisions.”
Don Roberts
“One thing you find out when you net a lake this size is there's a lot of variability. One net will be loaded with fish, and another will have hardly any. You try to reduce the variability with a larger sample size.”
Randy Hiltner
“I suppose one could guess, but there are many variables. There's still a long process to go before Feb. 11 _ there's still a lot of hard work.”
Rodney MacDonald
“The circumstances of the world are so variable that an irrevocable purpose or opinion is almost synonymous with a foolish one.”
William Shakespeare
