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: Collocated satellite and surface measurements of solar radiation at five geographically diverse locations showed significant solar absorption by clouds, resulting in about 25 watts per square meter more global-mean absorption by the cloudy atmosphere than predicted by theoretical models.

TL;DR: The authors compared the climate sensitivity of 19 atmospheric general circulation models and found a roughly threefold variation among the models; most of this variation was attributed to differences in the models' depictions of cloud feedback.

TL;DR: In this article, Boer et al. compared 14 atmospheric general circulation models to assess the ability of a broad group of models to simulate current climate and found that the general improvement in the ability to simulate certain aspects of the climate is shown.

TL;DR: The largest contributor was the carbon dioxide radiation parameterizations of the models, which differed substantially among 15 atmospheric general circulation models.
