Some conclusions<br />

• The <strong>model</strong> captures very well the contrast between dry<br />

<strong>conditions</strong> in 2002 <strong>and</strong> wet <strong>conditions</strong> in 2005 at all<br />

<strong>resolution</strong>s.<br />

• In the real system this contrast was due to lower/higher<br />

occurrence <strong>of</strong> tropical systems.<br />

• We currently investigate if the <strong>model</strong> response is due to<br />

less or more tropical systems or a response to just SST
