Description: |
This study investigated the spatio-temporal features of the serious positive precipitation bias over the southwestern equatorial Indian Ocean, found in most current coupled and uncoupled general circulation models, and its links with the large scale monsoon circulation. The study attempted to answer two questions: Is there a common identifiable mechanism forcing the local bias? Does the local bias have an influence on the continental simulated monsoon precipitation?
