[https://www.ipcc.ch/report/ar5/wg2/ AR5 Climate Change 2014: Impacts, Adaptation, and Vulnerability, Glossary], published by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) defines predictability as: ‘ The extent to which future states of a system may be predicted based on knowledge of current and past states of the system. Because knowledge of the climate system’s past and current states is generally imperfect, as are the models that utilize this knowledge to produce a climate prediction, and because the climate system is inherently nonlinear and chaotic, predictability of the climate system is inherently limited. Even with arbitrarily accurate models and observations, there may still be limits to the predictability of such a nonlinear system.’
