Relation of the double‐ITCZ bias to the atmospheric energy budget in climate models

Abstract We examine how tropical zonal mean precipitation biases in current climate models relate to the atmospheric energy budget. Both hemispherically symmetric and antisymmetric tropical precipitation biases contribute to the well‐known double‐Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) bias; however,...
