Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • The tropopause in all simulations lies near 0.1 bar, as observed.

    “The tropopause, recognizable as the level at which the vertical temperature lapse rate changes sign, in all simulations lies near 0.1 bar, likewise as observed (Simon-Miller -4.et al. 2006;Fletcher et al. 2007).”

  • In the Jupiter simulation, the equator-to-pole contrast in the brightness temperature of thermal radiation is 10 K, which is similar to, albeit larger than, the observed brightness temperature contrast or the observed temperature contrast near the emission level.

    “In the Jupiter simulation, the equator-to-pole contrast in the brightness temperature of thermal radiation is 10 K, which is similar to, albeit larger than, the observed brightness temperature contrast or the observed temperature contrast near the emission level (Ingersoll et al. 1976;Ingersoll 1990;Ingersoll et al. 2004;Simon-Miller et al. 2006).”

    From Mechanisms of Jet Formation on the Giant Planets (2010) · cites this paper as Simon-Miller et al. 2006

  • A similar equatorial temperature minimum is seen in observations of Jupiter and Saturn.

    “A similar equatorial temperature minimum is seen in observations of Jupiter and Saturn (Simon-Miller et al. 2006;Fletcher et al. 2007).”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
