Alternative methodology:<br />

In addition to filtering structures smaller than the grid cell, we also<br />

filter turbulent eddies smaller than the size <strong>of</strong> the most energetic<br />

eddies. Because we are running in RANS mode, all turbulence should<br />

be filtered out by the turbulence closure scheme. Martilli’s choice is<br />

to improve the treatment <strong>of</strong> the horizontal turbulent transport terms.<br />

Can we still neglect these terms for high<br />
