Comparison of 10-day mean OLR and zonal wind at 850 hPa between observation and simulation. Observed and ensemble mean of 10-day mean OLR (green contour) and zonal wind at 850 hPa (color shading) averaged during a 1–10 August, b, d 11–20 August, and c, e, f 21–30 August 2004. d, e show NICAM simulation initialized from 5 to 11 August; f shows 12–18 August. a Black crosses indicate the locations of tropical cyclogenesis. OLR values less than 200 W m−2 are shown with contour intervals of 20 W m−2. Broken lines depict the shear line. After Fig. 1 of Nakano et al. (2015)
