Does anybody know how high (in terms of pressure) the ccsm3 model resolves in the atmosphere? More specifically the atmospheric component (CAM) of the ccsm3. I am doing some research on different climate models. I haven't come across that piece of information in my reseach.

Thanks,

In the cam3.0, the top pressure is set to 2.917mb which could be found in page 52 of the User`s Guide to the NCAR Community Atmosphere Model (CAM3.0) that I attached as file HybridVerticalCoordinate.JPG.
Hope that help you.
