Optimal Ensemble Size for Climate Analysis: Balancing Utility and Cost

This study explores the ideal number of models in an ensemble to analyze climate variability and change, focusing on return level curves and uncertainties in extreme precipitation and temperature. By comparing single-model and multi-model ensembles, the analysis delves into heat waves, precipitation intensity, extreme temperature range, warm nights, and maximum 5-day precipitation. It also examines the trade-off between marginal utility and cost of additional ensemble members, including insights on creating "super ensembles" with varying model contributions.
