Simulations using the model ECHAM5-MESSy with T31, T42, and T63 horizontal resolutions. All simulations have the same 39 vertical levels with model top at 0.01 hPa and run from 1958-2000 with no interactive chemistry, greenhouse gas concentration and solar cycle forcing kept at year-2000 levels, and using climatological (1960-2000) sea surface temperature and sea ice. The QBO is nudged towards observed tropical winds. (Neef, L. J., Matthes, K., 2012: Comparison of Earth rotation excitation in data-constrained and unconstrained atmosphere models.
