The importance of using a high-resolution model to study the climate change on small islands: the Lesser Antilles case

High-resolution climate change simulations over the Lesser Antilles are performed using the ALADIN-Climate regional climate model nested within the global model ARPEGE (Météo-France). Three sets of simulations are conducted at 10 km grid spacing for reference (1971–2000) and future climate (2071–210...
