TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe the main characteristics of CNRM-CM6-1, the fully coupled atmosphere-ocean general circulation model of sixth generation jointly developed by Centre National de Recherches Meteorologiques (CNRM) and Cerfacs for the sixth phase of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project 6 (CMIP6).
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: It is shown that an El Niño tends to peak during the year following large eruptions in simulations of the Fifth Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP5), and that a Pinatubo-like eruption cools tropical Africa and drives westerly wind anomalies in the Pacific favouring anEl Niño response.
Journal ArticleDOI
Natural forcing of climate during the last millennium: fingerprint of solar variability
Didier Swingedouw,Laurent Terray,Christophe Cassou,Aurore Voldoire,D. Salas-Mélia,Jérôme Servonnat +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a state-of-the-art climate model to simulate the last millennium and found that modelled variations of surface temperature in the Northern Hemisphere are coherent with existing reconstructions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Decadal Climate Variability and Predictability: Challenges and Opportunities
Christophe Cassou,Yochanan Kushnir,Ed Hawkins,Anna Pirani,Fred Kucharski,In-Sik Kang,Nico Caltabiano +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a review paper about Decadal Climate Variability and Predictability (DCV) and propose a unifying theme referred to as drivers of teleconnectivity as a backbone to address and structure the core DCV research challenge.
Journal ArticleDOI
Intense storm activity during the Little Ice Age on the French Mediterranean coast.
Laurent Dezileau,Pierre Sabatier,Pierre Sabatier,Philippe Blanchemanche,Baptiste Joly,Didier Swingedouw,Christophe Cassou,Jérôme Castaings,Philippe Martinez,U. von Grafenstein +9 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a record of these extreme climatic events that have occurred in the French Mediterrannean coast over the past 1500 years, based on the analysis of sediment cores from Gulf of Aigues-Mortes lagoons.
