TL;DR: In this article, an earth system model has been developed at Beijing Normal University (Beijing Normal University Earth System Model, BNU-ESM); the model is based on several widely evaluated climate model components and is used to study mechanisms of oceanatmosphere interactions, natural climate variability and carbon-climate feedbacks at interannual to interdecadal time scales.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors compared eight ET models, including five empirical and three process-based models, with the objective of providing a reference for choosing and improving ET simulation methods, and found that the eight models explained between 61 and 80% of the variability in ET at 23 eddy covariance towers in China and adjacent regions.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model coupled with the Urban Canopy Model (UCM) to simulate the regional impacts on climate under the two scenarios: the underlying surface changes due to urbanization (USCU) and anthropogenic heat release (AHR).

TL;DR: The authors show that anthropogenic emissions of greenhouse gases have made compound hot extremes increasingly frequent and intense, and project that under future emissions four to eight times as many people will be affected by them by 2100.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented the first WAMME experiment and evaluated the performance of the WAMme general circulation models in simulating variability of WAM precipitation, surface temperature, and major circulation features at seasonal and intraseasonal scales.
