"The study examines simulation of atmospheric circulation, represented by circulation indices, and links between circulation and daily surface air temperatures in regional climate models (RCMs) over Central Europe. We explore control simulations of five high-resolution RCMs from the ENSEMBLES project driven by re-analysis (ERA-40) and the same global climate model (ECHAM5) plus of one RCM driven by different GCMs. Although most of the RCMs qualitatively reflect observed distributions of the airflow indices, each produces distributions significantly different from the observations. Some circulation biases obviously propagate from the driving data. Relatively strong relationships between circulation indices and surface air temperatures were found in the observed data for Central Europe. The links differ by season and are usually stronger for daily maxima than minima. RCMs qualitatively reproduce these relationships. Effects of the driving model biases were found on RCMs\u2019 performance in reproducing also the links to surface temperature." . "10.1007/s00382-011-1278-8" . .
