Figure 5From: The Non-hydrostatic Icosahedral Atmospheric Model: description and development Dependency of the simulated NICAM climatology on the vertical resolution. Dependency on the vertical resolution of the (upper) zonal mean temperature (K), and (lower) zonal mean zonal wind (m s-1). From left to right: JRA25 reanalysis (Onogi et al. [2007]), CIRA86 (http://badc.nerc.ac.uk/view/badc.nerc.ac.uk__ATOM__dataent_CIRA), NICAM (Δzmax = 2 km), NICAM (Δzmax = 1 km), and NICAM (Δzmax = 0.5 km). For CIRA86, the climatology for June is shown. All the other panels are the averages for June 2004. Shading denotes deviations from the CIRA86 climatology.Back to article page
