A review of the experimental protocol and motivation for DYAMOND, the first intercomparison project of global storm-resolving models, is presented. Nine models submitted simulation output for a 40-day (1 August–10 September 2016) intercomparison period. Eight of these employed a tiling of the sphere that was uniformly less than 5 km. By resolving the transient dynamics of convective storms in the tropics, global storm-resolving models remove the need to parameterize tropical deep convection, providing a fundamentally more sound representation of the climate system and a more natural link to commensurately high-resolution data from satellite-borne sensors. The models and some basic characteristics of their output are described in more detail, as is the availability and planned use of this output for future scientific study. Tropically and zonally averaged energy budgets, precipitable water distributions, and precipitation from the model ensemble are evaluated, as is their representation of tropical cyclones and the predictability of column water vapor, the latter being important for tropical weather.

DYAMOND：以非静水力区域为模型的大气总环流动力学

本文介绍了DYAMOND的实验方案和动机，这是第一个全球性风暴解决模型的比对项目。九个模型提交了为期40天（2016年8月1日至9月10日）的比较期间的模拟输出。其中八个采用了均匀小于5 km的球体平铺。通过解决热带对流风暴的瞬态动力学问题，全球风暴解决模型消除了对热带深对流进行参数化的需要，从根本上提供了对气候系统的更合理的表示，并与来自卫星的相应高分辨率数据进行了更自然的联系。传感器。将更详细地描述模型及其输出的一些基本特征，以及对该输出的可用性和计划用途，以供将来进行科学研究。
