Using the global and coupled ICON-Sapphire model with a grid spacing of \SI{5}{\kilo\meter}, we describe seasonal and diurnal features of the tropical rainbelt and assess the limits of ICON-Sapphire in representing tropical precipitation. Aside from the meridional migration, the tropical rainbelt exhibits a seasonal enlargement and a zonal migration. Surprisingly, ICON-Sapphire reproduces these characteristics with better performance over land than over ocean and with a very high degree of agreement to observations. ICON-Sapphire especially struggles in capturing the seasonal features of the tropical rainbelt over the oceans of the Eastern Hemisphere, an issue associated with a cold SST bias at the equator. ICON-Sapphire also shows that a perfect representation of the diurnal cycle of precipitation over land is not a requirement to capture the seasonal features of the rainbelt over land, while over the ocean, 5km is sufficient to adequately represent the diurnal cycle of precipitation.
