Abstract: The authors present results for simulated climate and climate change from a newly developed high-resolution global climate model [Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory Climate Model version 2.5 (GFDL CM2.5)]. The GFDL CM2.5 has an atmospheric resolution of approximately 50 km in the horizontal, with 32 vertical levels. The horizontal resolution in the ocean ranges from 28 km in the tropics to 8 km at high latitudes, with 50 vertical levels. This resolution allows the explicit simulation of some mesoscale eddie… Show more

“…The increase in precipitation over India in the MetUM is consistent with the resolution sensitivity of the annual precipitation range over India in the CMIP3 models (Kim et al 2008). In other resolution sensitivity studies using individual GCMs, orographic rain bands over India tend to become more well defined, but the sign of precipitation changes over India are highly variable (Sperber et al 1994;Stephenson et al 1998;Delworth et al 2012;Sabin et al 2013;Bacmeister et al 2014). This is also true within MetUM configurations.…”

“…Second, when spatial resolution is high (25-50 km), many phenomena are reasonably well simulated in GCMs 97 , including tropical cyclones 63,91 and extratropical weather regimes such as blocking 98,99 . This makes higher resolution desirable.…”
