Predicted vs. actual ΔP (hPa) across simulations and observations. a Direct gradient wind balance model for OMEGA. b MLR model with predictor V m for OMEGA c MLR model with three predictors (V m, f, r 8) for OMEGA. d MLR model with two predictors (V m, \(\frac{1}{2}f{r_8}\)) for OMEGA. e–h, Same as a–d for AMIP. i–k Same as b−d for observations. Color denotes relative frequency within hexagonal bin. Black line denotes one-to-one correspondence. Gray lines denote median (solid), interquartile range (dashed), and 5–95% range (dotted) of predicted ΔP within 5 hPa bins of ΔP CAM5 and ΔP obs starting from zero, plotted at bin-median value of each (dot) for bins with at least five data points. N denotes sample size. For GWB, mean prediction bias defined as \({\overline {\Delta P} _{{\rm{GWB}}}} - {\overline {\Delta P} _{{\rm{CAM5}}}}\), and α V denotes wind speed rescaling factor
