This paper provides a detailed illustration that it can be much more beneficial for ENSO forecasting to use data to improve the model parameterizations rather than to modify the initial conditions to gain in consistency with the simulated coupled system.

The Zebiak and Cane (1987) model is first run in its 'forced mode' where the oceanic part of the model is driven by FSU wind stress anomalies over 1980-1994 to simulate sea surface temperature anomalies and those are used in the atmospheric part of the model to generate wind anomalies. Simulated thermocline depths, sea surface temperature and wind stress anomalies are first validated with observations.
In this paper, we examine the conditions under which the Cane and Zebiak's model can be run so that the simulated anomalies of wind and SST agree better with the observations.
The Zebiak and Cane (1987) model is used in its uncoupled mode.
