R30 Model -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- One of the simulations conducted as part of the GFDL-University Consortium project is a 17 year simulation in which the lower boundary conditions repeat the mean seasonal cycle. Attributes of the model simulation are given below. R30 horizonal resolution (~2.25 latitude x 3.75 longitude) 14 vertical levels Realistic orography Seasonally varying insolation Fixed SST and sea ice, seasonally varying Predicted clouds Gravity wave drag The 14 sigma levels of the model are given below 0.0000 , 0.0300 , 0.0707 , 0.1311 , 0.2102 , 0.3036 , 0.4062 , 0.5138 , 0.6226 , 0.7284 , 0.8255 , 0.9066 , 0.9640 , 0.9933 , 1.0000
