The model processes include surface physics state package （BATS le）, a Holtslag explicit planetary boundary layer formulation, a Grell cumulus parameterization, and a modified radiation package （CCM3）. Model-produced surface temperature and precipitation axe compared with observations from 1001 meteorology stations distributed over Asia and with the 0.5° × 0.5° CRU gridded dataset. The analysis results show that： （1） RIEMS reproduces well the spatial pattern and the seasonal cycle of surface temperature and precipitation; （2） When regionally averaged, the seasonal mean temperature biases are within 1-2℃. For precipitation, the model tends to give better simulation in winter than in summer, and seasonal precipitation biases are mostly in the range of - 12%-50%; （3） Spatial correlation coefficients between observed and simulated seasonal precipitation are higher in north of the Yangtze River than in the south and higher in winter than in summer; （4） RIEMS can well reproduce the spatial pattern of seasonal mean sea level pressure. In winter, the model-simulated Siberian high is stronger than the observed. In summer, the simulated subtropical high is shifted northwestwards; （5） The temporal evolution of the East Asia summer monsoon rain belt, with steady phases separated by more rapid transitions, is reproduced.展开更多
