Robust future precipitation declines in CMIP5 largely reflect the poleward expansion of model subtropical dry zones

Robust subtropical precipitation declines have been a prominent feature of general circulation model (GCM) responses to future greenhouse warming. Recent work by the authors showed that for the models making up the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project phase 3 (CMIP3), this drying was found mainly i...
