The common thread A model parameterised on the basis of “outside measurements” alone will probably fit field data poorly. Hence it must be “calibrated”.

The common thread No matter how many parameters a model has (ie. no matter how complex it is) normally only a handful of parameters will be adjusted during the calibration process. The model’s complexity then becomes a veneer.

The common thread Even after a model has been calibrated, it is still very rare for model to have the ability to simulate every nuance of a system’s behaviour.

The common thread Even if it could, a multiplicity of parameters would normally provide an identically good fit between model outcomes and field measurements. The more parameters that a model has (ie. the more complex that it is, the greater the extent of parameter nonuniqueness).

Soooooooo…. When we make a prediction using our model, especially one that involves fine detail, to what extent can we believe the model?

Soooooooo…. And which of the many possible parameter sets that calibrate the model do we use in making this prediction?
