DOI: 10.1016/j.accre.2020.08.001
Abstract: Abstract A model-by-model analysis for historical simulations was necessary for identifying reasonably performing models in the updated Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP6) over the Tibetan Plateau. To determine whether the capacity of the CMIP6 models… read more here.

DOI: 10.1029/2020gl089964
Abstract: We examine the response of globally averaged precipitation to global warming—the hydrologic sensitivity (HS)—in the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project phase 6 (CMIP6) multi‐model ensemble. Multi‐model mean HS is 2.5% K−1 (ranging from 2.1–3.1% K−1 across… read more here.

DOI: 10.1088/1748-9326/ab81c2
Abstract: Climate projections for the 21st century for CMIP6 are warmer than those for CMIP5 despite nominally identical instantaneous radiative forcing. Many climate modeling groups attribute the stronger warming in the CMIP6 projections to the higher… read more here.

DOI: 10.1088/1748-9326/ab8cd0
Abstract: Under global warming, changes in extreme temperatures will manifest in more complex ways in locations where temperature distribution tails deviate from Gaussian. Confidence in global climate model (GCM) projections of temperature extremes and associated impacts… read more here.
