Land–ocean warming contrast over a wide range of climates: convective quasi-equilibrium theory and idealized simulations
Surface temperatures increase at a greater rate over land than ocean in simulations and observations of global warming. It has previously been proposed that this land–ocean warming contrast is related to different changes in lapse rates over land and ocean because of limited moisture availability ov...
