When this is the case, it's assumed the indices match, so for example if forecast input 1 has such a percentile setting, then observation input 1 will be used to compute the percentile. Percentiles in which this will happen are: * SFP in an observation input - * The matching forecast input will be used to determine the threshold. - e.g. ">SFP33.3" in the 2nd observation input means greater than 33.3-rd percentile of the 2nd forecast input will be used as the threshold for that observation input. + * The matching forecast input will be used to determine the threshold. e.g. ">SFP33.3" in the 2nd observation input means greater than 33.3-rd percentile of the 2nd forecast input will be used as the threshold for that observation input. + * SOP in a forecast input - * The matching observation input will be used to determine the threshold. - e.g. ">SOP33.3" in the 2nd forecast input means greater than 33.3-rd percentile of the 2nd observation input will be used as the threshold for that forecast input. + * The matching observation input will be used to determine the threshold. e.g. ">SOP33.3" in the 2nd forecast input means greater than 33.3-rd percentile of the 2nd observation input will be used as the threshold for that forecast input. * "==FBIAS" in an observation input. - * e.g. "==FBIAS1" in an observation input to automatically de-bias the data, using a simple threshold in the matching forecast input.
