️ Weather appears chaotic+random, leading scientists to describe the #Climate w/ statistical quantities such as variances or spectra. While these reflect the random behavior of climate variables, they are nevertheless well-defined as long as the external drivers of the climate system remain constant. In a new study, #MPI_scientist Jin-Song von Storch reveals the constitutive principle underlying such #ClimateStatistics–the Integral Fluctuation-Dissipation Relation IFDR. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.physa.2025.131218
