A Layer‐Averaged Nonhydrostatic Dynamical Framework on an Unstructured Mesh for Global and Regional Atmospheric Modeling: Model Description, Baseline Evaluation, and Sensitivity Exploration

Abstract This paper describes the development and evaluation of a new nonhydrostatic dynamical framework for global and regional atmospheric modeling, with an emphasis on the numerical performance of dry dynamics. The model is formulated in a layer‐averaged manner using a generalized hybrid sigma‐ma...
