Description:

The National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP) Climate Forecast System version 2 (CFSv2) has a large cold bias in the model's deep soil temperature during summer. This study explores the potential triggering effect of that bias on excessive Eurasian snow cover in early winter. Snow cover appears erroneously early in the fall, especially in western Eurasia, in long simulations with CFSv2.
