Climate sensitivity and relative humidity changes in global storm-resolving model simulations of climate change.

The climate simulation frontier of a global storm-resolving model (GSRM; or -scale model because of its kilometer-scale horizontal resolution) is deployed for climate change simulations. The climate sensitivity, effective radiative forcing, and relative humidity changes are assessed in multiyear atmospheric GSRM simulations with perturbed sea-surface temperatures and/or carbon dioxide concentrations. Our comparisons to conventional climate model results can build confidence in the existing climate models or highlight important areas for additional research.
