摘要：Sanso, Forest and Zantedeschi (SFZ) have presented an excellent analysis that combines
limited computer simulations with historical observations to provide inference
about key climate system parameters. The Bayesian formulation used in this analysis
allows the incorporation of a number of di
erent sources of uncertainty in the nal
inference. We appreciate such a collaboration requires a substantial amount of e
ort
from all involved. There is not much to criticize here. Most of our comments, which
are motivated by the case study, apply generally to analyses involving the calibration
of a physics-based simulation model using physical observations.
