«Abstract: The Community
Atmosphere Model Version 5 is run at horizontal grid spacing of 2, 1, 0.5, and 0.25 °, with the meteorology nudged toward the Year Of Tropical Convection analysis, and cloud simulators and the collocated A-Train satellite observations are used to explore the resolution dependence of aerosol - cloud interactions.

Atmosphere Model version 5, also known as CAM5.
In a study supported by the Office of Biological and Environmental Research's Atmospheric System Research program, scientists used the Community
Atmosphere Model version 4 to examine the relative importance of heating at different altitudes to the MJO.
The study also suggests that the standard Community
Atmosphere Model version 4 has difficulty simulating the MJO because it produces sufficient upper level heating but not enough lower level heating.

A recent study by C10 analysed a number of different climate variables in a set of SMEs of HadCM3 (Gordon et al. 2000,
atmosphere — ocean coupled
version of HadSM3) from the point of view of global - scale
model errors and climate change forcings and feedbacks, and compared them with variables derived from the CMIP3 MME. Knutti et al. (2006) examined another SME based on the HadSM3
model, and found a strong relationship between the magnitude of the seasonal cycle and climate sensitivity, which was not reproduced in the CMIP3 ensemble.
