Numerical model based on an hypothetical barotropic atmosphere. This model takes no account of vertical wind shears and horizontal temperature gradients; therefore, the growth of disturbances through conversion of potential to kinetic energy cannot be predicted. It yields a prediction at only one level(generally 500 hPa). 2, record 1, English, - barotropic%20model

Modèle numérique basé sur une atmosphère barotrope hypothétique.
