Short summary
We studied how well climate models simulate Indian monsoon rainfall at different time scales, from daily cycles to longer variations. We found that models may match seasonal averages but still fail to capture when and how rainfall occurs. These errors differ over land and ocean and affect overall monsoon patterns. Improving how models represent rainfall processes across scales is essential for better prediction.
