The model developed by the Center for Climate System Resaerch/

National Institute for Enviromental Studies in Tokyo consists

of the atmospheric component which has vertical resolution of

20 levels and the triangular truncation at wavenumber 21 (T21).

The ocean model has 17 vertical levels and the same resolution.
