2. Numerical Model
2. Numerical Model The numerical model utilized in this study is reconstructed from a 2D numerical model developed by Nakajima (1994), which is used to calculate convection in the Martian atmosphere. Nakajima's original model is designed to calculate cumulus convection in the terrestrial atmosphere. The source code of the present model can be seen in Nakajima and Odaka (2000). The detailed expressions of the model equations are shown in Appendix A, and their forms of finite difference are shown in Appendix B. Outline of model Simulation setup and Computational resources
