Dynamical measures of the climate (e.g., winds, eddy fluxes) simulated by a general circulation model are compared at different horizontal and vertical resolutions for the December, January, and February period. The simulations of the troposphere are found to improve significantly as the horizontal resolution increases in the range of spectral truncations from T21 to T63. Little sensitivity is found to changes in vertical resolution between about 2.8 km and 0.7 km vertical grid spacing. The improvements in the Southern Hemisphere troposphere are greater than in the Northern Hemisphere as the horizontal resolution increases. The eddy momentum fluxes and kinetic energies in both hemispheres increase monotonically with horizontal resolution. At T63, the Southern Hemisphere winds, eddy fluxes, and eddy kinetic energies agree favorably with observations, while serious discrepancies are present at lower resolutions. In the Northern Hemisphere, the eddy momentum flux at T63 is slightly larger than observed, while the transient eddy kinetic energy is still barely half of the observed. The gravity wave drag parameterization plays a significant role in the simulations at all resolutions. Eddy momentum fluxes increase when gravity wave drag is removed with a corresponding increase in low-level winds and surface stress.
