The development of and results obtained with a variable-resolution stretched-grid GCM for the regional climate simulation mode are presented. A global variable-resolution stretched grid used in the study has enhanced horizontal resolution over the United States as the area of interest. The stretched-grid approach is an ideal tool for representing regional-to global-scale interactions. It is an alternative to the widely used nested-grid approach introduced over a decade ago as a pioneering step in regional climate modeling.
