look-up table?Not much value added by a LUT.
Simple formulation Module runs very quickly.
Pull h’s from a LUT? Model run to get LUT values could be run
at L31.
![Page 26: The Non-Local Scheme in CAM3 Michael A. Brunke. introduction surface layer outer layer free atmosphere h 0.1h 0 z PBL](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d4d5503460f94a2bd36/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
summary CAM3 uses standard non-local turbulence scheme in
PBL. 17 tunable constants and 8 arbitrary functions. Scheme not sensitive to Ricr and ; are sensitive to b
and a Convective temperature excess is needed. LUT probably not necessary except maybe to get h.
