CAM7 Vertical Grid Simulations

Phase 1 simulations

Testing and configuration of free tropospheric and stratospheric grids for the 80km and 40km models

FV simulations

• High Top Model (model lid at 80km)

SE simulations

• SE simulations on CAM6 grid (L32)
• Low Top Model (model lid at 42km)
• High Top Model (model lid at 80km)

Phase 2 simulations

Configuration of the new planetary boundary layer resolution within the grid chosen from phase 1.

SE simulations

• Low Top Model + Extra PBL levels
