Diagnosing the average spatio-temporal impact of convective systems – Part 1: A methodology for evaluating climate models

An earlier method to determine the mean response of upper-tropospheric water to localised deep convective systems (DC systems) is improved and applied to the EC-Earth climate model. Following Zelinka and Hartmann (2009), several fields related to moist processes and radiation from various sa...
