Re: Help: Is existing a function in NCL who calculated Brier score?

There can't be an explicit function for everything.

That said, the Brier score is the mean squared error of the probability
forecasts
over the verification sample. From Wikipedia

   http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brier_score

    Brier_Score = SUM( (P(n)-X(n))^2 )/N

In NCL

     N = dimsizes(P)
     Brier_Score = sum( (P-X)^2 )/N

Good Luck
