2 forcing. The RCM is driven by boundary conditions obtained from simulations performed by a global climate model, the HadCM3, which participated in the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) 4th Assessment Report. In particular, the characteristics of extreme temperature and precipitation episodes with duration of some days are compared in both climates. s It is also planned to use the RCM PRECIS driven by boundary conditions obtained by GOGA and TAGA AGCM experiments performed with the Community Climate System Model (CCM3) to improve the knowledge of the dynamical response of the IP atmosphere to several sea surface temperature patterns: the El Niño-Southern Oscillation, the North Atlantic Tripole, the Atlantic Inter-hemispheric Gradient and the Atlantic Horseshoe patterns.
