Effects of a multilayer snow scheme on the global teleconnections of the Indian summer monsoon

Eurasian snow is one of the slowly varying boundary forcings known to have significant influences on the mean and variability of the Indian summer monsoon rainfall (ISMR). A multilayer complex snow scheme, incorporated into the state‐of‐the‐art coupled Climate Forecast System version 2 (CFSv2) showed significant improvements in the simulation of mean ISMR, snow, and Northern Hemisphere surface and tropospheric temperature. Here we show that a...
