The Impact of Convection on ENSO: From a Delayed Oscillator to a Series of Events (2008, background): “…to humidity (Sherwood 1999), the uncertain effect of convective momentum transport continues to be incorporated in GCMs in a very simple way (e.g., Kim et al. 2008; Richter and Rasch 2008; Song et al. 2008; Wittenberg et al. 2006), mostly because of theoretical and observational uncertainties.”
The GFDL CM3 Coupled Climate Model: Characteristics of the Ocean and Sea Ice Simulations (2011, methodology): “The analysis of historically forced simulations contrasts with the use of 1990 radiative forcing experiments by Delworth et al. (2006), Grifﬁes et al. (2005), Gnanadesikan et al. (2006), and Wittenberg et al. (2006) used to document CM2.”

Part II: The Baseline Ocean Simulation (2006, background): “The tropical Pacific (which is well represented in both models) is discussed in detail in the companion paper of Wittenberg et al.

Assessment of Twentieth-Century Regional Surface Temperature Trends using the GFDL CM2 Coupled Models (2006, background): “Concerning regional-scale analysis, recent studies have applied formal detection/attribution methods at decreasing spatial scales and report evidence for detectable anthropogenic warming signals down to the continental scale (Zwiers and Zhang, 2003; Stott 2003).”
Structure and Performance of GFDL's CM4.0 Climate Model (2019, methodology): “The realism of the equatorial Pacific SST spectrum is a remarkable improvement over most previous coupled global climate models including those previously produced by GFDL (Delworth et al., 2012; Vecchi et al., 2014; Wittenberg et al., 2006).”
Global Warming and the Weakening of the Tropical Circulation (2007, background): “... Pacific equatorial easterlies induced by a slowing Walker circulation, among them: (i) a weakening of the surface westward currents, (ii) a weakening of equatorial upwelling, (iii) a relaxation of the east–west thermocline gradient, and (iv) a reduction of the mean depth of the equatorial thermo”
