High-Resolution Climate Simulations in the Tropics with Complex Terrain Employing the CESM/WRF Model

Table 5

RMSEs, MEs (E[observations − simulations]), and CCs of simulations and observations for CESM and CESM/WRF simulated 20-y average annual precipitation (mm) evaluated using the average of CPC, CRU, ERA, GPCC, and UD for land only, sea only, and both land and sea, where CESM/WRF is at 50 km resolution.
