However, in the absence of a clear theory explaining this, most modelers would not feel especially confident in such a result, especially as the CMIP models do not simulate long-lived blocking anticyclones with any degree of realism (Masato et al 2013), and even models with higher atmospheric resolution still suffer large biases in Euro-Atlantic blocking (Schiemann et al.
