                         Intra-Americas seas region features compared to the observations. 
                         The climate results consist on an ensemble of four integrations 
                         with Kuo and Grell convection schemes and large scale and 
                         microphysics precipitation. The observations are obtained from 
                         GPCP and ERA- Interim. The general precipitation and atmospheric 
                         features simulated by the model, such as the subtropical Atlantic 
                         and Pacific Highs, the jetstreams and humidity fluxes are well 
                         represented by the model. Negative precipitation bias occurs over 
                         southeastern North America, Amazonia and southeastern South 
                         America, while there are positive bias over Central America and 
                         Caribbean region, but the bias are lower than in the old version. 
                         DJF and JJA seasons show the seasonality of Southern and Northern 
                         Hemisphere as well as the changes in the Intra-Americas seas. The 
                         models Southern Oscillation Index compares well with the 
                         observation and El Nino influence on Northeastern and Southern 
                         Brazil precipitation is well captured by the model. The model 
                         represents the Summer anticyclonic circulation at high levels over 
                         South America (Bolivian High) and North America (Mexican High) 
                         associated with monsoon features. Interseasonal and interannual 
                         precipitation variability in the intertropics are linked to 
                         humidity flux in the Inter-Americas seas region, as the fluxes are 
                         directed from one hemisphere to the other.",
