The score card provides a quick visual overview over the performance of the cycle 43r3 scores compared to cycle 43r1.

Each symbol indicates whether for the given time step, score, parameter, level and domain the cycle 43r3 is better or worse than the cycle 43r1 on the given level of statistical significance.

Symbol legend: for a given forecast step...
43r3 better than 43r1 statistically significant with 99.7% confidence
43r3 better than 43r1 statistically significant with 95% confidence
43r3 better than 43r1 statistically significant with 68% confidence
not really any difference between 43r1 and 43r3
43r3 worse than 43r1 statistically significant with 68% confidence
43r3 worse than 43r1 statistically significant with 95% confidence
43r3 worse than 43r1 statistically significant with 99.7% confidence
