The file qtcmpar.in (in src
and work
) contains the
value of various physical parameters used by the model. See
Section 3.1 for more information. These
should not be changed by the average user. If you wish
to modify these parameters, please contact the QTCM1 development
team for information on the source code used to calculate their
values.
Below is a brief description of some of the categories of variables described in qtcmpar.in:
a1hat
, a1s
, V1s
,
b1hat
, and b1s
help describe the
temperature and humidity profiles.GMsr
, GMsp
, GMqr
,
GMqp
, GMs0r
, and GMq0r
help
describe the gross moist stability.eps_c
is used in our version of the
Betts-Miller [15, 16, 17]
convective parameterization.CV0
is related to the neutral drag coefficient. See
subroutine sflux
in qtcm.f for more details.eps_0
, eps_10
,
eps_01
, and eps_1
are related to momentum damping.Tsref
is the reference surface temperature.Cpg
converts heat flux into column heating rate.Trefs
is the surface value of the reference atmospheric
temperature.qrefs
is the surface value of the reference atmospheric
humidity.
