SAMIL

CMAP

Summary SAMIL can be used in the dynamic researches on

large-scale mountain, the role of surface sensible heating, condensation heating, etc.

SAMIL can also be used in the researches on monsoon evolution, subtropical high, etc.

FGOALS can run stably for more than 200 yrs, and will complete CMIP required experiments.
