EXTRATROPICAL-TROPICAL INTERACTION MODEL INTERCOMPARISON PROJECT (ETIN-MIP): Protocol and Initial Results: ETIN-MIP is a community-wide effort to improve dynamical understanding of the linkages between tropical precipitation and radiative biases in various regions, with implications for anthropogenic climate change and geoengineering

ABSTRACT This article introduces the Extratropical-Tropical Interaction Model Intercomparison Project (ETIN-MIP), where a set of fully coupled model experiments are designed to examine the sources of longstanding tropical precipitation biases [...]
