“…However, even for the net cloud feedback, some regions exhibit less consistency, like India, western Pacific Ocean, North Atlantic Ocean, and high-latitude oceans. The different warming pattern in Indian and Pacific Ocean between amip4K and coupled experiments might lead to different cloud feedbacks over India because monsoon simulation is very sensitive to the air-sea coupling and land-sea temperature contrast (Endo et al, 2018;Geen et al, 2020;Singh et al, 2019;Wang, 2005). A "warming hole" is commonly simulated by coupled models in the North Atlantic (Chemke et al, 2020;Drijfhout et al, 2012;Josey et al, 2018), which could cause a locally different cloud feedback compared to that occurring when SSTs are warmed uniformly.…”
