Data Analysis Skill

Metrics Calculation

To calculate RMSE:

1. Load observed and simulated data.
2. Align data by date and depth.
3. Use exact date-time match and rounded depth (nearest integer meter) for pairing.
4. Calculate RMSE: sqrt(mean((observed - simulated)^2))

RMSE Targets

• Overall RMSE: < 1.60
• Annual Deep RMSE: < 1.55 (depth >= 13 m)
• Summer Deep RMSE: < 1.70 (depth >= 13 m, months 6-9)
