Assessing the Dynamic Versus Thermodynamic Origin of Climate Model Biases

Assessing the Dynamic Versus Thermodynamic Origin of Climate Model Biases

Abstract Global climate models present systematic biases, among others, a tendency to overestimate hot and dry summers in midlatitude regions. Here we investigate the origin of such biases in the Community Earth System Model. To disentangle the contribution of dynamics and thermodynamics, we perform...
