New paper finds models have it wrong again & predict excessive droughts: Published in Nature
Study finds that 'across all six continents studied, afternoon rain falls preferentially over soils that are relatively dry compared to the surrounding area.' The finding is yet another example of negative feedbacks in the climate system that help to stabilize climate. However, climate models are programmed to assume the opposite: that dry areas will become drier and wet areas wetter due to a fictitious positive-feedback mechanism'
