Precipitation simulation in global climate models: Impact of horizontal resolution and improved land surface scheme.

This dissertation examines the improvement in the simulation of precipitation by using a high resolution model and a highly physically-based land surface scheme. To investigate the impact of the horizontal resolution on the simulated fields, six versions of NCAR's latest Community Climate Model...
