[RegCNET] Validation of RegCM3 over IRAN/Khorasan province

[babaeian]

Hi
We have simulated a ten-yae precipitation and temperature of Iran-Khorasan 
province using RegCM3. In the research RegCM3 with 15 km horizontal 
resolution and four different convection schemes of Grell-Fc/ As, Kuo and 
Emanuel are used. We compared the precipitation and temperature outputs with 
CMAP and NCEP reanalysis data. Minimum mean monthly and seasonal bias of 
precipitation are found in Kuo parameterization by -0.9 and -7.1 mm 
respectively. Minimum error of temperature is found in Grell-FC with -3.4 
degree of centigrade. 
So, I want to know 
1-if our results  is similar with other simulations with RegCM in other 
countries.
2-Why the Kuo has minimum error of temperature and Grell-FC has minimum 
error of temperature?
Regards
Iman
