Wind-Precipitation Paradox in CMIP3 Monsoon rain JJA Multi-model ensemble Rain, winds (future minus present) increase weaker westerly 2000 2050 Ueda et al. (2006; GRL) Monsoon rainfall is projected to increase while the low-level westerlies will be weakened
Anomalous Tropical Warming temperature Thickness (500~200hPa) Future Warmed atmosphere Anomalous warming Less warming southward positive anomaly + + + condensation heating + Anomalous upper tropospheric warming in the Indian Ocean cause to decrease in MTG evaporation - consistent with the attenuated circulation Eq Indian Ocean Tibet/Eurasia Ueda (2012, Climate system study)
Comparison between CMIP3 and CMIP5 CMIP3 CMIP5 Rain, winds (MME, Future) Ogata, Ueda, Hayasaki et al.(submitted) In the CMIP5, the monsoon flows in the tropical Indian Ocean are projected to decrease, however. outside of the tropical Indian Ocean, enhanced monsoon westerlies and weakened trade winds newly emerge.

Warming in the upper Troposphere Discrepancies in the upper troposphere [i] Satellite derived air temperature and Models show difference (Fu, Manabe, Johanson, 2011; GRL) [ii] Models exceeds that observed by radiosondes (Seidel et al., 2012; GRL) - Reduction of the model bias Prescribing observed SST in AMIP models show good perform. (Mitchell et al., 2013; GRL) - Formation processes of SST are still ongoing issues Top-down warming mechanism in SST (Xiang et al. 2013, CD; Kamae and Watanabe 2012, CD)
Anomalous warming in the upper tropsphere Observations versus Models satellites models Fu, Manabe, Johanson (2011, GRL) Historical runs of the CMIP5 show anomalous warming than satellites Seidel et al., 2012(GRL) Warming trend in the models is greater than radiosondes
Paleoclimate Modelling Intercomparison Project PMIP targets 4 periods to understand inherent process in the climate variations 1 3 glacial-interglacial cycle Lisiecki and Raymo (2005) 2 4 3Ma(Pliocene) LGM: Last Glacial Maximum 6ka~ Hypsitherml
AO-GCM Experiment in LGM (21ka) Continental cooling due to permanent NH ice sheet is equivalent to decrees of air temperature in the tropics - producing small changes in the MTG - almost the same intensity of ASM T (LGM minus present) Monsoon in warm/cold climate do not exhibit simple mirror image Ueda et al. (2011, Clim. Dyn.)
Mid-Pliocene (3Ma) SST Anomaly (relative to present) Rain and χ200 Anomaly (relative to present) Japan PRISM3 decrease rainfall increase Reconstructed SST from proxy data shows remarkable warming in the Atlantic, especially in the higher latitudes while the anomalies are obscure in the tropics. Monsoonal rainfall is much suppressed, while African monsoon expands poleward ( green Sahel?) => Implicating reversed monsoon-desert mechanism Kamae, Ueda, Kitoh (2011, Clim. Dyn.)

GCM runs with Piecewise Constant SST (PCS) The advantage of PCS method is to evaluate contribution rate of SST and solar radiation to the total feedback Ueda, Ohba, Xie (2009, JCLIM)
Conventional Perpetual Experiments Perpetual SST experiment Perpetual insolation experiment 5/1 6/1 Perpetual SST onset 5/1 6/1 Perpetual insolation onset Underestimate for cloud-shielding effect After the enhancement of convection Underestimate for the negative ocean feedback Conventional perpetual runs cannot completely evaluate effect of SST and solar radiation. 16
