Years ago I ran into this paper:

What is amazing about it, is that back in 1992 they nailed the
odds of climate change to north of 100k, in a statistically
rigorous manner.
They can do this because "Extreme Value Theory" is an extremely
sensitive way to determine if a process is static or if it fits
your (noise-)model.
I've often wondered about EVTs applications to oscillator noise,
but Real Life have kept me busy with other things, so I'll happily
pass this ball to anybody else who might want a go...

Never attribute to malice what can adequately be explained by incompetence.
