Causes of model dry and warm bias over central U.S. and impact on climate projections
Climate models repeatedly show a warm and dry bias over the central United States, but the origin of this bias remains unclear. Here the authors associate this bias to precipitation deficits in models and after applying a correction, projected precipitation in this region shows no significant change...

Here the authors associate this bias to precipitation deficits in models and after applying a correction, projected precipitation in this region shows no significant changes. |
