Gregory M. Flato,Jochem Marotzke,Babatunde J. Abiodun,Pascale Braconnot,Sin Chan Chou,William D. Collins,Peter M. Cox,Fatima Driouech,S. Emori,Veronika Eyring,Chris E. Forest,Peter J. Gleckler,Eric Guilyardi,Christian Jakob,V. Kattsov,C. J. C. Reason,M. Rummukainen +16 more
TL;DR: In this article, an overview of model capabilities as assessed in this chapter, including improvements, or lack thereof, relative to models assessed in the AR4, is presented, along with an assessment of recent work connecting model performance to the detection and attribution of climate change as well as to future projections.
Journal ArticleDOI
Development of regional future climate change scenarios in South America using the Eta CPTEC/HadCM3 climate change projections: climatology and regional analyses for the Amazon, São Francisco and the Paraná River basins
José A. Marengo,Sin Chan Chou,Gillian Kay,Lincoln M. Alves,José Pesquero,Wagner R. Soares,Daniel C. Santos,André Lyra,Gustavo Sueiro,Richard Betts,Diego Chagas,Jorge Gomes,Josiane F. Bustamante,Priscila Tavares +13 more
TL;DR: The Eta-CPTEC model nested in these lateral boundary conditions was configured with a 40-km grid size and was run over 1961-1990 to represent baseline climate, and 2011-2100 to simulate possible future changes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Assessment of Climate Change over South America under RCP 4.5 and 8.5 Downscaling Scenarios
Sin Chan Chou,André Lyra,Caroline Mourão,Claudine Pereira Dereczynski,Isabel L. Pilotto,Jorge Gomes,Josiane F. Bustamante,Priscila Tavares,Adan Silva,Daniela Rodrigues,Diego Campos,Diego Chagas,Gustavo Sueiro,Gracielle Siqueira,José A. Marengo +14 more
TL;DR: In this article, four sets of downscaling simulations based on the Eta Regional Climate Model forced by two global climate models, the HadGEM2-ES and the MIROC5, and two RCP scenarios (8.5 and 4.5) have been carried out.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluation of the Eta Simulations Nested in Three Global Climate Models
Sin Chan Chou,André Lyra,Caroline Mourão,Claudine Pereira Dereczynski,Isabel L. Pilotto,Jorge Gomes,Josiane F. Bustamante,Priscila Tavares,Adan Silva,Daniela Rodrigues,Diego Campos,Gustavo Sueiro,Gracielle Siqueira,Paulo Nobre,José A. Marengo,Diego Chagas +15 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated the Eta RCM simulations driven by three global models, the HadGEM2-ES, BESM, and MIROC5, for the present period, 1961-1990.
Journal ArticleDOI
Downscaling of South America present climate driven by 4-member HadCM3 runs
Sin Chan Chou,José A. Marengo,André Lyra,Gustavo Sueiro,José Pesquero,Lincoln M. Alves,Gillian Kay,Richard Betts,Diego Chagas,Jorge Gomes,Josiane F. Bustamante,Priscila Tavares +11 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluate climate simulations over South America using the regional Eta Model driven by four members of an ensemble of the UK Met Office Hadley Centre HadCM3 global model.
