Regional Climate Model Sensitivity to Domain Size for the Simulation of the West African Summer Monsoon Rainfall
We use the International Centre for Theoretical Physics (ICTP) Regional Climate Model (RegCM3) to study the impact of different domain sizes on the simulation of the West African summer monsoon rainfall and circulation features. RegCM3 simulates drier conditions over the default domain (RegCM-D1) an...
