Recomputing p-values needs the paper’s full text.

Claims the paper makes

We couldn’t retrieve this paper’s full text, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

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

  • Before 2014, the northern hemisphere had been warming as expected from radiative and dynamical climate models.

    “However, the seasonal evolution in the northern hemisphere was less dramatic: although the north had been warming, as expected from radiative and dynamical climate models13–15, there was no sign of the sharp latitudinal thermal gradients (and hence vertical windshear) that had been associated with the SPSV at the beginning of Cassini’s mission.”
  • Only one model includes circulation resulting from seasonal forcings, making some progress in introducing sharper ∂T/∂y gradients, but it was not designed with polar circulations in mind and does not generate gradients in the right locations.

    “To date, only one model14 includes circulation resulting from seasonal forcings (Supplementary Fig. 2c), making some progress in introducing sharper ∂T/∂y gradients, but this model was not designed with polar circulations in mind and does not generate gradients in the right locations.”

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.
