Vertical south-north cross-section from model simulations at 1400 UTC of horizontal wind speed (colour fill) and vertical wind speed (black contours) at longitude 15.9. The black contours are from −0.9 to 0.9 by 0.3, where filled lines are positive values and dashed lines are negative. The thick black line shows the height of the inversion.
