¥LANS-a produces turbulence statistics that resemble doubled-resolution
simulations without LANS-a in:
§Kinetic energy
§Eddy kinetic energy
§Temperature distributions
associate with baroclinic instability
¥LANS-a increases computation time by 30%, as opposed to a factor of 8-10 to
double the resolution.
¥Current
work: simulations using LANS-alpha in realistic domains, such as the
North Atlantic domain.
