"A and B" : Design of the hybrid vertical coordinate (eta), 2008
Article published on 16 December 2009
last modification on 20 January 2011
These documents describe a new method for the setting the vertical levels in the "A and B" namelists. These describe a more intuitive method to define the hybrid pressure terrain-following coordinate in ARPEGE/ALADIN/AROME/...
A separate file contains the external FORTRAN program and Linux shell.
