Notes on model simulation for various versions

 

Archived sample figures of QTCM simulations for various versions are available from http://www.atmos.ucla.edu/~csi/QTCM/, along with comparisons to the observed climatology for your reference. For a number of climate features, you may notice that the differences between simulations by different versions are modest changes in intensity, slight shifts in position of particular features such as convection zones, storm tracks, transition to westerlies, etc. The notes here simply point out some aspects that we have noted as particular to each version. This section was added with v2.3, so notes on earlier versions are sparse.

V2.3
Released August 2002

V2.2
Released November 2000
