Meso-NH use a C-grid in the Arakawa convention [Arakawa and Lamb, 1977], both on the horizontal and on the vertical. This grid is shown on the following figure with:

  • 1 : mass points

  • 2 : u points

  • 3 : v points

  • 4 : w points

  • 5 : vertical vorticity point

  • 6 : vorticity components along y

  • 7 : vorticity components along x
