Research brief: Droughts inconsistently represented across climate models

July 6, 2018 2:18 am Published by Comments Off on Research brief: Droughts inconsistently represented across climate models

This study evaluated GCMs for common drought metrics during the past 55 years. It found different models can produce very different simulations of drought, depending on the type of drought and metric analysed. The study points to a need to improve GCMs for droughts to reduce uncertainties in future projections.
