Vegetation over the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau in Response to Climate Change with a 2 ℃ Global Warming
Global warming has brought about a series of economic and environmental problems, seriously threatening the survival and development of human beings.The Paris agreement calls for limiting global warming to 2 ℃ for industrialization by the end of the ...

ENSO Asymmetry in CMIP5 Models
Abstract The El Niño–La Niña asymmetry is evaluated in 14 coupled models from phase 5 of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP5). The results show that an underestimate of ENSO asymmetry, a common problem noted in CMIP3 models, remains a common problem in CMIP5 coupled models.

Sampling biases in CMIP5 decadal forecasts [PDF]
AbstractRecent studies examining the fidelity of decadal hindcast experiments from phase 5 of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project have highlighted the need for larger ensembles of forecasts, compared to the initial five yearly spaced initializations, to help correct for model biases (drift).

The effects of the emissions of anthropogenic greenhouse gases (GHGs), aerosols, and natural forcing on the summer-mean surface air temperature (TAS) in the East Asia (EA) land surface in the 20th century are analyzed using six-member coupled model inter-

Past and Projected Weather Pattern Persistence with Associated Multi-Hazards in the British Isles
Hazards such as heatwaves, droughts and floods are often associated with persistent weather patterns. Atmosphere-Ocean General Circulation Models (AOGCMs) are important tools for evaluating projected changes in extreme weather.

Hadley cell expansion in CMIP6 models [PDF]
In response to increasing greenhouse gases, the subtropical edges of Earth's Hadley circulation shift poleward in global climate models. Recent studies have found that reanalysis trends in the Hadley cell edge over the past 30–40 years are within the ...

On the robustness of tropospheric adjustment in CMIP5 models [PDF]
Effective radiative forcing associated with the tropospheric adjustment (TA) caused by atmospheric CO2 quadrupling (4×CO2) is quantified using fixed sea surface temperature experiments in CMIP5 models. Several features of TA in the tropics, partly related to weakening of the hydrological cycle, are found robust among the models: warming and drying of ...
