Approximately 10 years ago, convection‐permitting regional climate models (CPRCMs)
emerged as a promising computationally affordable tool to produce fine resolution (1–4 km) …

Fundamental puzzles of climate science remain unsolved because of our limited
understanding of how clouds, circulation and climate interact. One example is our inability to …

African society is particularly vulnerable to climate change. The representation of convection
in climate models has so far restricted our ability to accurately simulate African weather …

Sahel rainfall is dynamically linked to the global Hadley cell and to the regional monsoon
circulation. It is therefore susceptible to forcings from remote oceans and regional land alike …

More than one hundred days were simulated over very large domains with fine (0.156 km to
2.5 km) grid spacing for realistic conditions to test the hypothesis that storm (kilometer) and …

Vegetation modifies land-surface properties, mediating the exchange of energy, moisture,
trace gases, and aerosols between the land and the atmosphere. These exchanges …

This study evaluates the grid-length dependency of the Weather Research and Forecasting
(WRF) Model precipitation performance for two cases in the Southern Great Plains of the …

A convection-permitting multiyear regional climate simulation using the Met Office Unified
Model has been run for the first time on an Africa-wide domain. The model has been run as …

As the nation's economic activities, security concerns, and stewardship of natural resources
become increasingly complex and globally interrelated, they become ever more sensitive to …
