Regional climate models (RCMs) have been developed and extensively applied for
dynamically downscaling coarse resolution information from different sources, such as …

The representation of air quality and meteorology over Asia remains challenging for
chemical transport models as a result of the complex interactions between the East Asian …

We study the ability of 24 ocean atmosphere global coupled models from the Coupled
Model Intercomparison Project 5 (CMIP5) to reproduce the teleconnections between El Niño …

The role of the Arabian Sea (AS) warming on the Indian summer monsoon rainfall is
investigated using regional climate model-Regional Climate Model version 4.7 of …

The rainfall mean state and variability of the tropical Southern Hemisphere are strongly
affected by the Tropical Convergence Zones. Unlike the South Pacific and South Atlantic, the …

Precipitation in the tropical Andes is strongly influenced by the ENSO phases and
orographic effects. In particular, precipitation can be drastically reduced during El Niño …

Climate change is expected to substantially influence precipitation amounts and distribution.
To improve simulations of extreme rainfall events, we analyzed the performance of different …

Numerical weather-and climate prediction models rely on soil data to accurately model land
surface processes. However, as soil data are produced using soil profiles and maps with …

Using 38 years of ERA-Interim reanalyses, this study examines the flow and associated
moisture fluxes induced by ridging South Atlantic Ocean anticyclones over South Africa. The …

Land use and land cover change (LULCC) impacts local and regional climates through
various biogeophysical processes. Accurate representation of land surface parameters in …
