    Description: A regional coupled atmosphere–ocean model is developed to study the monsoon climate over South Asia. Most of the climate models (both GCM and RCM) underestimate precipitation over South Asia, but overestimate precipitation over the Bay of Bengal and the equatorial Indian Ocean. These systematic differences between the models may be related to a fundamental problem of atmospheric models: the inability to simulate intraseasonal variability. The intraseasonal oscillations of the South Asian monsoon play a major role in influencing the seasonal mean monsoon characteristics and their interannual variability (Goswami and Mohan, 2001). Several GCM studies with focus on the South Asian monsoonal region have concluded that GCMs have difficulties in simulatingthe mean monsoon climate (Turner and Annamalai, 2012). RCMs do simulate better orographic induced precipitation, but also show limited ability to simulate the land precipitation (Lucas-Picher et al., 2011; Kumar et al., 2013). For this study, differences in coupled and uncoupled simulations are analyzed to investigate the effect of coupling on the simulated climate, especially precipitation spatial patterns.

    Description: Currently, Global Coupled Models (GCMs) have difficulty capturing key phenomena and achieving accurate climate projections on regional and local scales because limitations in computer po wer do not allow them to reach the necessary horizontal resolutions. Regional climate models (RCMs) provide dynamically downscaled climate information within the region of interest, improving this drawback of current GCMs. At this point, naturally raises the question of how much, if any, the RCM can improve the GCMs results. It has been argued that regional models can reproduce an observed climatology but are not able to predict the change of the climatology in response to a changing climate (e.g. Kerr, 2013). However, Feser et al. (2011) could demonstrate an added value in those parameters that exhibit high spatial variability such as near surf ace temperature in different regional atmospheric models. They show that the added value originates mainly from the higher resolved orography in the regional models.
