Abstract

The article focuses on the analysis of the skills of seven regional climate models (RCM) in the reproduction of mean daily temperatures for the Central England region. It notes that three airflow indices were used during the examination of RCM's ability to reproduce. Comparison among the frequency distribution of each index, the relationships between the daily airflows indices and temperature, as well as the ability of models to reproduce is discussed.
