An objective Bayesian method for including parameter uncertainty in ensemble model output statistics
Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.Conventional model output statistics and ensemble model output statistics methods for calibrating ensemble forecasts lead to severe underestimation of the probabilities of ensemble extremes (in blue). This is because they ignore statistical parameter uncertainty.
