Not really sure how to use e_vert and stretching

[Deleted member 3607]

Good morning,

Could someone please explain how to use e_Vert and the stretching variables? Like I have read the tutorials and I am still not sure how to use it properly.

I have attached my namelist.input for someone to help me.

A good procedure to follow may be:

1. Determine the model top pressure.

2. Determine how thick your lowest layer is (50 m by default)

3. Determine maximum thickness (1 km by default).


Then based on your needs, the stretching rates can be chosen using the table in chapter 4 of UG (link above) as a guideline.
