Abstract: A common signal in climate model projections is a decline in average summer rainfall over midlatitude continents due to anthropogenic warming. Most models suggest this rainfall decline will be less severe over North America ...

Abstract: his study provides an overview of the state of the art of modeling SST teleconnections to Africa and begins to investigate the sources of error. Data are obtained from the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP) ...

Abstract: A variety of regional and global sea surface temperature (SST) patterns are known to affect interannual to decadal variations of summer rainfall over the Sahel, and for most of these patterns considerable progress has been ...

Abstract: A global search for areas where seasonal prediction may be feasible has attracted scientific interest for many years. This contribution is based primarily on data from a six-member ensemble of 45-yr climate runs, each of ...

Abstract: AbstractUnderstanding the causes of regional climate projection uncertainty is a critical component toward establishing reliability of these projections. Here, four complementary experimental and decomposition techniques ...

Abstract: Squall lines (SLs) form an important component of the meteorology of northern Africa, and in particular, contribute substantially to rainfall totals. Their generation requires the existence of a potentially unstable low-level ...

Abstract: he importance of investigating regional climate changes associated with degrees of global warming is increasingly being recognized, but the majority of relevant research has been based on multimodel ensembles (MMEs) from ...

Abstract: rojected changes in regional seasonal precipitation due to climate change are highly uncertain, with model disagreement on even the sign of change in many regions. Using a 20-member CMIP5 ensemble under the RCP8.5 scenario, ...
