Representing the Australian Heat Low in a GCM Using Different Surface and Cloud Schemes

The high insolation during the Southern Hemisphere summer leads to the development of a heat low over north-west Australia, which is a significant feature of the monsoon circulation. It is therefore important that General Circulation Models (GCMs) are able to represent this feature well in order to...
