4. Interannual Variability of East Asian Monsoon
Climate by RMIP models
The model can simulate the interannual variability of
monsoon precipitation, as shown in Fig. 3. The high
variability regions such as North India, south-east China are
reasonably captured by most RMIP models. The differences
between model results and observations are not significant.

5. Conclusions
Most RMIP model can simulate the averaged East Asian
Monsoon precipitation as well as its variability. However,
models’ abilities on producing the main rainfall centers and
intensities can be further improved by better simulation of
monsoon circulation and better understand the impacts of
the model physical processes on East Asian monsoon
system.
