Moving vortices with adaptive refinement (4.1 MB)

Previous

The Moving Vortices Test Case is defined in the article by Nair and Jablonowski,  Monthly Weather Review, v. 136, 2008.

This computation used 2 refinement criteria: one to resolve the interface where the tracer is close to 1, and one to resolve steep gradients in the tracer.  The error in this computation is as good as a uniform mesh with N = 20480 panels.
