Yes.  So is A, siumultaneously.  Standard
parameter estimation method was employed.

Yes, AE and then AEP are calculated, but
not correlated.  The difference between the
estimate and the actual GICTEMP GTA is the
residual.  The two parameters are estimated
so as to minimize the RMS of the residuals.

Well, consider recent Artic sea ice melt.
Nobody seems to have predicted such a large
change would happen in 2007 CE.
