overestimation

The refined model scored a 0.160 µg/m3, marking a slight overestimation of particulate levels that aligned much closer to what the ground sensors measured.

Failure to fully account for these inter-correlations could potentially result in overestimation of the figures instead.

The authors use these new maps to show that previously published 'carbon-only' estimates of the global climate mitigation potential of restoring trees worldwide provided significant overestimation, being anywhere from 20 to 81% too high.

All research fields showed a similar overestimation of their own honesty, although the effect was greatest for researchers in medicine.

"To date, this hasn't been captured properly, leading to overestimation of how much power a wind farm will produce. This kind of overestimation is financially disastrous for the wind farm operators."
