Here's how the probabilistic forecast test would work for temperature, for instance: forecasters would be given 100 notional forecasting "tokens" for every forecast.
But it doesn't work through local temperature or rainfall changes.
He and fellow Cornell researchers David Lee and Douglas Osheroff were awarded the Nobel for 1996 for their 1971 work on low-temperature physics involving the isotope helium-3, which has contributed to research ranging from the properties of microscopic matter to astrophysics.
Temperature-sensing paints work similarly they use luminescent molecules that light up according to how much they are vibrating, glowing less (and shaking more) when they are hotter and glowing more (and shaking less) when they are cooler.
Exactly how such high-temperature superconductors (HTSs) work remains a mystery, but that has not stopped engineers from trying to exploit them.
In December, a group led by Stephen Chou at the University of Minnesota announced that it had got a single-electron transistor to work albeit unreliably at room temperature.
The work could also, if successful, lead to room temperature quantum circuits.
His calculations reanalysed work cited by the IPCC and took account of more recent temperature data.
FORBES: Climate Change Is Now Less Of a Problem. So We Need To Do Less About Climate Change
Recently, work has shown that if you analyse long-term global temperature rise for windy days and calm days separately, there is no difference.

The open workspace design of the building brings exterior views to 90 percent of employee work spaces, and the coated windows help regulate the interior temperature without boosting energy costs.
Specifically, I think what we'd like to see is continued work to stabilize the situation, but also to bring down the temperature and reduce the tensions.
But if they can then get it to work in p. furiosus, they could run the whole system at high temperature, high enough to allow the biofuels produced to be distilled without having to build a separate distilling apparatus.
President Bush said Friday the United States and the rest of the world's worst polluters should work together to set a goal for reducing greenhouse gas emissions that have triggered a global increase in temperature.
It is an extremely complex measurement, because there are so many factors at work: shifting ocean currents, the dynamics and movement of large ice shelves, and the varying temperature and saltiness of water at different places.
