Modeling Northern Hemispheric Winters (30 Apr 2013)
How good are the simulations of the most up-to-date climate models? Authors Kim et al. (2012) assessed the seasonal prediction skill for the Northern Hemisphere winter and found a number of biases that have yet to be overcome... Read More

Projections of CMIP5 Models: Will They Ever Come Together? (30 Apr 2013)
An unfortunate conclusion of this study is that accepting model spread as a way to portray uncertainty of the projection estimate may result in an overestimation of the projected warming and at the same time indicate little model agreement on the mean value. What is more, non-negligible part of this sad state of affairs is due to model deficiencies, which have yet to be overcome to the point that all model results come together and converge on a common projection...

Effects of Temperature on Mortality in Tropical Tanzania (1 May 2013)
Even in the relatively warm temperature conditions of the tropics, it is relative cold that kills far more people than relative heat... Read More

Modeling the Asian Summer Monsoon (1 May 2013)
How good are the simulations of the most up-to-date climate models? Not very good, and with both of the world’s most advanced climate modeling systems “performing poorly, in the estimation of Kim et al., in simulating monsoon precipitation that affects almost half of the world’s population, it would appear that the climate modeling enterprise still has a long ways to go before anyone should get too excited about what the fruits of that endeavor are suggesting...

Insect Pest Nightmares of European Grapevine Growers (1 May 2013)
Will they worsen or be dispelled if temperatures rise further in the future? Based on the results of this paper, current assumptions of an increasing importance of E. vitis as a grapevine pest under future climate change are likely incorrect... Read More
