Abstract Nepal is located on the southern slope of Central Himalayas and has experienced frequent droughts in past. In this study, we used an ensemble 13 biased corrected models from Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6 (CMIP6) to assess future drought conditions over under three shared socioeconomic pathways (SSP126, SSP245, SSP585) using Standardized Precipitation Evapotranspiration ...

The influence of El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) on the East Asian winter monsoon (EAWM) is investigated based outputs phase 6 Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP6) models and compared to that in 5 (CMIP5). Results show overall CMIP6 reproduce ENSO-EAWM teleconnection more realistically than CMIP5 models, although they still somewhat underestimate observed. Based intermodel spread s...

The Australian Community Climate and Earth System Simulator (ACCESS) has contributed to the World Research Programme’s Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6 (CMIP6) using two fully coupled model versions (ACCESS-CM2 ACCESS-ESM1.5) ocean–sea-ice (1° 0.25° resolution of ACCESS-OM2). models differ primarily in configuration version their atmosphere components (including aerosol scheme), wi...

Abstract The Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (phase 6) (CMIP6) global circulation models (GCMs) predict equilibrium climate sensitivity (ECS) values ranging between 1.8 and 5.7 $${^\circ }$$ ∘ C. To narrow this range, we group 38 GCMs into low, medium high ECS subgrou...

This study assesses the performance of 46 global climate models Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (Phase 6) - CMIP6 and selects better in simulating precipitation air temperature at 2 meters height climatology over tropical South America (SA) during historical period (1996-2014). For this reason, some statistical measures are computed. A great number have a small bias when compared with obs...

Abstract Global climate models (GCMs) are the state-of-the-art tool for understanding change and predicting future. However, little research has been reported on latest NEX-GDDP-CMIP6 product in China. The purpose of this study was to evaluate simulated performance drought capture utility over First, simulation skills 16 GCMs evaluated by 'DISO', a big data evaluation method. Second, DISO frame...

Abstract. Climate change over High Mountain Asia (HMA, including the Tibetan Plateau) is investigated period 1979–2014 and in future projections following four Shared Socioeconomic Pathways: SSP1-2.6, SSP2-4.5, SSP3-7.0 SSP5-8.5. The skill of 26 Coupled Model Intercomparison Project phase 6 (CMIP6) models estimated for near-surface air temperature, snow cover extent total precipitation, 10 them...
