Climate models can be extremely complex, and involve interactions and feedbacks among different components of the climate system. The resulting climate predictions are often made using the outputs of 20+ different climate models, which leads to a wide spread of future climate projections. However, since some components are shared among some climate models, the multi-model mean response is not truly independent[1]. ML can help identify and leverage relationships between variables within climate models[2][3], which, together with the observed climate changes (i.e., observational constraint) could narrow down the spread in the future climate projections[4].
