Fig. 1. — Growth rates of the most unstable waves as functions of k_x for linear baroclinic instability about the state of rest, . High latitude (solid line), midlatitude (long-dashed line), and low latitude (short-dashed line). The Nyquist wavenumber of the coarse grid in the stochastic SP tests is |k_x| = 32, and the deformation wavenumber is k_d = 50.
