The CORDEX.be initiative as a foundation for climate services in Belgium [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The CORDEX.be project created the foundations for Belgian climate services by producing high-resolution Belgian climate information that (a) incorporates the expertise of the different Belgian climate modeling groups and that (b) is consistent with the ...

Extreme Arctic cyclones in CMIP5 historical simulations [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2013
AbstractIncreasing attention is being paid to extreme weather, including recent high‐profile events involving very destructive cyclones. In summer 2012, a historically powerful cyclone traversed the Arctic, a region experiencing rapid warming and dramatic loss of ice and snow cover.

Precipitation Extremes in CMIP5 Simulations on Different Time Scales [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Hydrometeorology, 2013
AbstractPrecipitation maxima in global climate model (GCM) simulations are compared with observations in terms of resolution dependence and climate change. The analysis shows the following results: (i) the observed scaling law relating precipitation maxima to duration is basically reproduced but exhibits resolution dependence, (ii) the intensity of ...

Interbasin Analysis of the Poleward Expansion of Tropical Cyclone Potential Intensity

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 4, 28 February 2026.
Abstract Favorable thermodynamic environments for tropical cyclone (TCs), as measured by potential intensity (PI), expand to higher latitudes in a warming climate, in both observations and future simulations. However, this expansion rate has yet to be compared systematically between hemispheres and across basins.

Comparisons Between CMIP5 and CMIP6 Models: Simulations of Climate Indices Influencing Food Security, Infrastructure Resilience, and Human Health in Canada

open access: yesEarth's Future, 2021
The warming climate can considerably affect socioeconomic activities and environmental health conditions in Canada. Climate models play a key role in evaluating the impact of climate change and developing adaption and mitigation strategies corresponding ...

The impact of Arctic sea ice loss on mid-Holocene climate. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Mid-Holocene climate was characterized by strong summer solar heating that decreased Arctic sea ice cover. Motivated by recent studies identifying Arctic sea ice loss as a key driver of future climate change, we separate the influences of Arctic sea ice ...

Saharan Heat Low Biases in CMIP5 Models

open access: yesJournal of Climate, 2017
Representing the West African monsoon (WAM) is a major challenge in climate modeling because of the complex interaction between local and large-scale mechanisms. This study focuses on the representation of a key aspect of West African climate, namely the Saharan heat low (SHL), in 22 global climate models from phase 5 of the Coupled Model ...

Systematic land climate and evapotranspiration biases in CMIP5 simulations [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2014
Land climate is important for human population since it affects inhabited areas. Here we evaluate the realism of simulated evapotranspiration (ET), precipitation, and temperature in the CMIP5 multimodel ensemble on continental areas. For ET, a newly compiled synthesis data set prepared within the Global Energy and Water Cycle Experiment‐sponsored ...

Deep Learning Atmospheric Models Reliably Simulate Out‐of‐Sample Land Heat and Cold Wave Frequencies

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 3, 16 February 2026.
Abstract Deep learning (DL)–based general circulation models (GCMs) are emerging as fast simulators, yet their ability to replicate extreme events outside their training range remains unknown. Here, we evaluate two such models—the hybrid Neural General Circulation Model (NGCM) and purely data‐driven Deep Learning Earth System Model (DLESyM)—against a ...

Climate Models Tend to Underestimate Scaling of UK Mean Winter Precipitation With Temperature

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 3, 16 February 2026.
Abstract Changes to seasonal precipitation can have dynamical and thermodynamic origins and disentangling these processes is challenging. To evaluate observed changes in UK winter precipitation from 1901 to 2023, we separate the signal into dynamical and non‐dynamical components by applying a dynamical adjustment using European weather patterns.
