In Fig. 14 on page 253 of Hannachi et al. (2003) the quantiles of the standardised observed Nino-3 index versus the quantiles of the standard normal are incorrect. The corrected plot is shown below. The discussion of Fig. 14 of Hannachi et al. (2003) is valid. In addition there has been a small change to the acknowledgements.
The quantiles of the standardised Nino-3 indices from 24 ENSIP coupled models versus the quantiles of the standard normal (bold). The dotted line is for the standardised observed Nino-3 index. The curve expected from the normal distribution is shown by the first diagonal
