Contents
The tapering scheme used by Danabasoglu and McWilliams, 1995,
[11], followed a similar procedure but used a different
tapering function, :
![$\displaystyle f_1(S) = \frac{1}{2} \left( 1+\tanh \left[ \frac{S_c - \vert S\vert}{S_d} \right] \right)$](img1761.png) |
(6.21) |
where
is a cut-off slope and is a scale over
which the slopes are smoothly tapered. Functionally, the operates in
the same way as the GKW91 scheme but has a substantially lower
cut-off, turning off the GM/Redi SGS parameterization for weaker
slopes.
The DM tapering scheme is activated in the model by setting GM_taper_scheme = 'dm95' in data.gmredi.
