TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provided an intercomparison and interpretation of climate feedback processes in 19 atmospheric general circulation models and found that a roughly threefold variation in one measure of global climate sensitivity was found among the 19 models.

TL;DR: An intercomparison of 17 general circulation models suggests that additional amplification or moderation may be caused both by cloud interactions and longwave radiation.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this article, the responses of the surface energy budgets and hydrologic cycles of 19 atmospheric general circulation models to an imposed, globally uniform sea surface temperature perturbation of 4 K were analyzed.

TL;DR: In this article, the surface energy budgets of 14 atmospheric general circulation models have been analyzed through idealized numerical experiments, and the response of each model is analyzed in detail the responses of one model with a strong positive snow feedback and another with a weak negative snow feedback.
