Convert your data into a matrix:
dataMat <- matrix(c(bline_precip[10,9], bline_runoff[10,9],
cccma_precip[10,9], cccma_runoff[10,9],
csiro_precip[10,9], csiro_runoff[10,9],
ipsl_precip[10,9], ipsl_runoff[10,9],
mpi_precip[10,9], mpi_runoff[10,9],
ncar_precip[10,9], ncar_runoff[10,9],
ukmo_precip[10,9], ukmo_runoff[10,9]), nrow=2)
Since I don't know the nature of your data I will use a simple example:
dataMat <- matrix(1:14, nrow=2)
barplot(dataMat, beside=TRUE, space=c(0,2))
tTicks <- barplot(dataMat, beside=TRUE, space=c(0,2))
tTicks <- tapply(tTicks, rep(1:7, each=2), mean)
axis(1, tTicks, letters[1:7])
Is that what you want?
