Stronger local overturning in convective-permitting regional climate model improves simulation of the subtropical annual cycle

Global climate models fail to represent the annual cycle of tropical-extratropical cloud bandsand produce too much summer rainfall over subtropical southern Africa. This study demonstrates thatrunning a regional convective-permitting climate simulation alleviates these biases, counteracting biasesth...
