The eastern boundaries of the tropical and subtropical oceans are regions of high biological
productivity that support some of the world's largest fisheries. They also feature extensive …

Robust projections and predictions of climate variability and change, particularly at regional
scales, rely on the driving processes being represented with fidelity in model simulations …

Tropical cyclones (TCs) are a hazard to life and property and a prominent element of the
global climate system; therefore, understanding and predicting TC location, intensity, and …

A new high-resolution Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory (GFDL) coupled model [the
High-Resolution Forecast-Oriented Low Ocean Resolution (FLOR) model (HiFLOR)] has …

BCC-CSM2-HR is a high-resolution version of the Bei**g Climate Center (BCC) Climate
System Model. Its development is on the basis of the medium-resolution version BCC-CSM2 …

Underestimated rainfall over Amazonia was a common problem for the Coupled Model
Intercomparison Project phase 3 (CMIP3) models. We investigate whether it still exists in the …

Coupled general circulation model (GCM) simulations participating in the Coupled Model
Intercomparison Project Phase 5 (CMIP5) are analyzed with respect to their performance in …
